Mechanical Requirements

Publisher requires camera-ready artwork (133-line screen). Will accept mechanicals, photostats, veloxes or negatives (right-reading, emulsion-side down), and laser printouts. Please send only black-and-white artwork. Mail artwork as instructed below, and no print ads on disk please. All bleeds and ad reductions or enlargements charged at $35 per advertisement.

Terms

To run all advertisements, publisher requires a signed insertion order that includes the following details: journal name; issue date; ad size; ad insertion frequency and rate; advertiser's complete contact information (name, phone, fax, billing address, email). Payment is due 45 days after receipt of invoice. Publisher cannot cancel reserved ad space on or after insertion-order deadline. Clearly mark all ads with journal name and issue date.

All advertisements are subject to publisher approval. Publisher is not responsible for content of advertisements. All ad rates are subject to change without notice. Contract ads will repeat previously submitted copy if we do not receive new copy by deadline date. Call in advance if submitting date-sensitive ads. Publication and due dates may vary.

Discounts

Agency discount: 15%. No cash discount.

Advertising agencies are responsible for full payment of all advertising ordered for their clients. Agencies forfeit discounts if we do not receive full payment within 45 days of the invoice date.
