Pharmaceutical Engineering Advertisement Production Requirements

Production Requirements
Pharmaceutical Engineering is printed with perfect binding. Ad materials should be submitted as high resolution Adobe Acrobat® PDF files with fonts and images embedded sent via email to Dave Hall at dhall@ispe.org. The publisher cannot change or correct a PDF file, therefore, the advertiser will be asked to send a new, corrected file if required. The advertiser will be charged for any prepress work required if files are incorrect or incomplete. Additional charges that may be incurred include scans, typesetting, repairing files, color correction, and image editing. The publisher will archive files for up to 18 months. If the advertisement has not been used in a publication in the past 18 months the files may be deleted.

Fifteen percent (15%) of gross paid to accredited advertising agencies on all space ONLY if the total amount due is paid in full within 45 days of publication issue date. Commissions do not apply to any production charges.

Billing
Invoices are rendered at publication issue date; due upon receipt. Both advertiser and specified advertising agency are held fully responsible for all authorized advertising insertions. All past-due invoices will be re-invoiced directly to the advertiser, who will be held fully responsible for payment. All accounts past 90 days will be assessed a monthly service charge of 1.5 percent of the unpaid balance.
