Proofs will be provided and copy alterations and revises by the advertiser will be invoiced as above.

Typesetting and other origination charges apply only to the first insertion of any advertisement and do not apply to advertisements of which acceptable camera-ready copy (or negative film) is supplied. Please note that camera-ready copy or film must be in black and white. Full-page and quarter-page advertisements must be in portrait format, and half-page advertisements must be in landscape format.

As an alternative to camera-ready copy, advertisements may be submitted as Adobe Acrobat® (.pdf) files. Please note that the advertisement must be in black and white. Full-page and quarter-page advertisements must be in portrait format, and half-page advertisements must be in landscape format. You may send us the pdf files on disk or by e-mail, or include them in a zip or stuffit compressed archive; however, please do not send other types of archive, or self-extracting archives (.exe, .sea, etc), as these will automatically be deleted at the mail gateway for security reasons. Provided the file contains artwork ready for immediate use with no further processing, and it is correctly sized, there will be no origination charges. If the file does require processing before use, the correcting charge (as above) will apply. Please note, however, that we are reluctant to post-process pdf files as, depending on the contents of the file, further processing may lead to unsatisfactory results. Pdf is intended as a means of encapsulating output in its final format, not as a means of transporting intermediate versions.

We may be able to accept file types other than Adobe Acrobat by arrangement.
