Personalised order proof checklist
A controlled proof connects the customer’s supplied details to one named production version.
Updated 2026-09-10
Copy details exactly
Record wording, capitalisation, punctuation and dates from the approved source. Highlight ambiguous characters and do not silently “correct” a requested spelling.
Check product and position together
Confirm the exact product, colour, size, decoration area and orientation. A layout that works on one item may not transfer unchanged to another.
Approve a named version
Show a version and date on the proof, record the approver and require a fresh approval after any alteration. Keep the final proof with the order confirmation.
