6.2 Printed surface dotted with dirt shall not be more than 1 dot per 5sqcm and the dot shall not be bigger than 0.3mm.
6.3 Tolerance of the cutting edge is +- 1.5mm.
6.4 While TIAN YIN will take every caution when handling pressure sensitive materials like carbonless copy paper (NCR), we cannot guarantee that they will be completely free of markings after print.
6.5 For products with Spot UV finishing, tolerance of registration is +-0.25mm. Member may not reject order if Spot UV defects affect only 2% or below of the printed quantity per order.
6.6 For products with hot-stamping finishing, tolerance of registration is +-1.5mm.
6.7 For products with thin paper material such as money packet, art paper, simili loose sheer with hot-stamping finishing, stamping pressure may leave a stamping mark on the back of products. Hence, members shall notice this risk and TIAN YIN shall not be held responsible for the stamping mark on the back.
6.8 For product with die-cutting, tolerance of cutting is +-1mm.
6.9 Any rejection for product related to the Default Security Tinting (confusing design) will not be accepted.
7. Colour Disclaimer (Offset Press)
In order to provide a cheaper end cost to our members and a quicker turnaround of the printed matter, TIAN YIN groups together CMYK work. This form of printing referred to as “gang-run printing” or “batch printing” is used for the printing of TIAN YIN standard products, and marginal variations are to be expected from one print run to another.
As such, while we take great effort to match colours as accurately as possible, we cannot be held liable for these marginal colour variations or inaccuracies in the printed matter which may be more evident in reprints.
A 100% exact colour match is not possible. The most accurate means of colour matching entails printing the job in isolation (entire-run print) as a stand alone job. This means of printing should be supported by contract proofing and will result in the print cost of the job being significantly greater.
8. Product Refund / Reimbursement
If you are not satisfied with any product, please e-mail Customer Service within 7 working days of receiving your printed goods. Please include your Agent name, order number and reason for dissatisfaction. At the same time, TIAN YIN will collect the printed goods from you within 7 working days. If we did not received the printed goods within 7 working days, TIAN YIN will charged the amount of the printed goods from your prepaid credit.

PLEASE NOTE: We will only reprint or refund the cost of any print job that fails to meet the conditions under the General Expectation on Printing Outcome (Terms & Conditions, clause #6). However, we are not responsible for typing, image, or design errors introduced by customers in the artwork/document creation process. In an effort to keep costs down and pass those savings along to our customers, TIAN YIN does not review artwork/documents for content or spelling. In no way shall either TIAN YIN SUCCESS SDN BHD or its subsidiaries, officers, directors, shareholders or employees be liable for any special incidents, indirect or consequential damages, mistakes or rejects of any kind whether or not the party has been advised of the possibility of such damages or rejects arising out of or related to an TIAN YIN Agent's action(s).
