Fast Custom Tabs — When the Deadline Is Real

Most quoted turnarounds only count production — and only start it after you approve a proof. If the proof takes a day to arrive and production is quoted at 8–10 business days after approval, the real wait is more than two weeks before shipping. That's the fine print that blows deadlines.

Our clock is shorter on both ends: the proof is instant, revisions are instant (change the design, the proof regenerates), and production is about 5 business days for paper tabs once you approve.

A few habits that keep a tight tab order on schedule:

• Approve the proof the same day you order — the production clock starts at approval
• Have your tab titles final before you design; revisions are instant but approvals aren't retroactive
• Order spares on exhibit and filing sets so a late change doesn't mean a reorder
• Genuinely out of runway? Contact us before ordering — rush production is possible on many jobs, and we'll tell you honestly what's doable

Speed comes from owning the equipment and skipping the middleman queue — not from skipping steps. Every fast order still gets the full treatment: your exact text and colors, Mylar reinforcing if you want it, collated sets, and nothing prints until you approve the proof.
