Order Process

The Print Process
Boyds Direct — more from print | more than print

Less guesswork.
More control at every step.

Here's exactly how a job moves through our shop — from quote to your loading dock — and what we check along the way.

Where are you starting?

Our process

Five steps, start to finish. Each one exists to catch a specific kind of problem before it costs you a reprint.

STEP 1

Get a quote

Send us the specs — size, quantity, paper stock, finishing, deadline — and we'll price it and confirm a timeline before anything goes into production.

Why it matters

You approve the number and the date up front. No surprise costs, no guessing when it'll be ready.

STEP 2

Send your files

Upload your artwork through our file portal — layered PDFs, vector logos, high-res photos, whatever format you have.

Why it matters

The file you send is the file we print from. Catching a low-res logo or missing bleed now, instead of after it's on paper, is the difference between a proof and a reprint.

STEP 3

We preflight and proof it

Every file is checked for resolution, color mode, bleed, and safe margins before it's set up for press. You'll get a digital proof to review and approve online.

Why it matters

Nothing runs until you've seen — and signed off on — exactly what will print.

STEP 4

We print and finish

Production happens in-house — printing, trimming, folding, binding, or laminating, depending on the job — so your project doesn't pass through three vendors to get done.

Why it matters

One shop, one point of contact, and one place accountable for the result.

STEP 5

It ships or you pick it up

Most jobs are ready in 2–5 business days. Pick up at our Woburn shop Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm, or we'll ship it to you.

Why it matters

You know the date going in, and we hit it.
