Terms & Conditions

Cancellations
Display advertisements set up but cancelled prior to first insertion will be charged at one-third (1/3) the cost of the ad. The cancellation deadline is the same as the advertising deadline because much of our cost is involved in the production of the ad itself.

Credit Policy
New accounts and political advertising, cash in advance. Credit extended to accounts only with reliable references. Statements must be paid within 15 days of closing dates on statement. A service charge of 1-1/2% per month will be applied to unpaid balances of 60 days or more, representing an annual percentage rate of 18%. A $20.00 NSF fee will be charged on all returned checks.

National Rate
Approved agency discounts (15% + 2% maximum) allowed on open rate only. Other rates are net. Signature Changes Between Editions...$10.00

Advertising Position
Position is not guaranteed, although we will make every effort to meet requests. When an advertisement appears on a certain page or location, no guarantee is given that such a position will continue for additional insertions. The advertiser will not be notified prior to publication if we find it necessary to run ad elsewhere.

Production
We can compose your ad or you may submit it electronically. Read our Ad Preparation Guide here. The Mail-Journal is digitally composed on Macintosh computers. Submit .pdf files and ASCII (generic text) via email or on CD/DVD.  Graphics for ads can be e-mailed as PDF files to adcomp@the-papers.com. If you have any questions, give us a call and we'll walk you through it.

Tear Sheets
All of our publications are now available on our website in page form.  Simply pull up the appropriate publication, locate the page containing your ad and print it out in your office at your convenience.  Proof of publication along with the entire publication is at your fingertips.

Excessive Changes in Proofs
In setting advertising, the copy and style of layout will be followed as near to specifications as possible. Proof is submitted for typographical corrections only and no proof is subject to author's changes of copy, layout or items unless advertiser is willing to assume the extra composition charges.
