ii) Guidelines for making a photobook

Color correlation of print and digital display:-

Flipchap uses 4 color-printing based on the CMYK color mode, while digital display employs an RGB color mode. There is a possibility that the printed color may appear slightly different from the RGB color mode in digital display. However, we employ a High-chroma printing technology that minimizes color distortion with over 90% of color correlation between print and digital display. This is the highest possible color closeness between print and digital display that modern technology has provided.

By proceeding to make and print a photobook with us, you are deemed to understand and have agreed that there could be a slight distortion of color, and this does not contribute towards a product defect.

Image quality:-

Any prints than have a non-satisfactory outcome that is due to the uploaded digital image being insufficient in quality do not contribute to a product defect. However, a 50% discount for reprint as in (i) will be offered on a one time basis per customer.

There are many scenarios for an image being insufficient in quality:

a) Blurred amidst of being in acceptable resolution
b) Lower than acceptable resolution for the specific size on print
c) Color already distorted in digital form
d) Insufficient lighting or over-exposure rendering

Above-mentioned scenarios are common for the insufficient quality of the image but customers should be aware of any other condition that is not mentioned. Our system has a feature that detects a below than acceptable resolution image and provides an alert to the customer. This feature is complimentary and shall not be taken as a final determinant.

Content restriction:-

Flipchap reserves the right to reject printing any photobook that contains content with sexual, violence and/or immoral elements, at our sole discretion. The digital content will also be deleted from our storage system (upon requested). These images will never be used by our website or published to promote our services.

It is the customers’ responsibility to be certain on the copyright of the content and Flipchap are not held responsible of any infringement or illegal distribution. No refund or reprint (with other set of contents) will be provided if your photobook is rejected based on the above restriction(s).

Images of featured materials and products:-

Please note that materials featured may have minor differences than that in the pictures shown. This is due to the monitor display, lighting and color balance that may alter the real color and shade.
