Timeline for Major Print Projects
Major print projects beyond the UTD Copy Center take 4-6 weeks for completion.
Step 1: Project Ideation
(print quantity, dimensions, paper selection, number of pages, color process type, specialty features, etc.)
Step 2: Quote Request + UTD PO Process
1-2 Weeks
Step 3: Design + Internal Approvals
1-2 Weeks (begins after receiving final print-ready content)
Typically takes place at the same time as step 2 if content is ready for design.
Step 4: Print Proofing + Press Check
1 Week
Step 5: Printing
2 Weeks (for standard printing)
3 Weeks (for specialty printing such as binding, foil, UV coating, etc.)
Step 6: Mailing (if applicable)
2-3 Business Days
When mailing services are required, a finalized mailing list is required during step 2. No modifications can be made to this list once it has been processed.
