Camer-a-Ready Art and Advertisements
Positives: print your black and white advertisement using laser printing on high quality paper. If your advertisement contains complex shades of gray or a photograph, you may need to provide the original artwork or photograph along with your laser print.
Film: The Home & Garden Journal can accept film in lieu of a camera-ready positive with tree week advance notice.

Advertising Agreement Terms

All advertising is at Open Rate unless a contract agreement has been signed prior to advertising publication.

Advertisers not fulfilling contracted agreements may be billed for the difference between the contracted rate and the actual rate earned on ads placed during the term of the contract.

Contract rates apply to individual Advertisers. Advertising shall be for one business, unless businesses are under a single ownership. Rights or rates may not be assigned or transferred to another business or agency.

The Publisher reserves the right to change advertising rates with 30 days notice to contract holders, who may accept the new rate or submit written notice of contract cancellation with the 30-day period.

Advertising must be paid in full prior to publication unless a credit application has been submitted and approved.

Payment on a billed account is due the 15th day of the month following publication. A late charge of 1.5% will be added to an account past due by 30 days or more.

Past due accounts are subject to suspension of advertising and credit privileges.

The Publisher reserves the right to edit or reject any advertisement at any time. Any advertisment or supplement simulating news content must be labeled as paid advertising.

Ad placement is at the sole discretion of the Publisher unless a guaranteed placement charge has been paid.

Advertiser shall notify the Publisher of any error in time for correction before second insertion. Upon mutual agreement, Publisher may run corrective advertising for any portion of the first insertion that has been rendered valueless by the Publisher's error. Publisher's liability shall not exceed the cost of the space occupied by the advertisement. Except as provided above, Publisher assumes no liability for loss to Advertiser as the result of errors or omission in advertising copy.

Neither party to an agreement shall be held liable for failure to perform as the result of acts of Nature or reasons beyond their control. Under such circumstances, either party shall have the right to terminate an agreement without penalty. However, nothing in this paragraph shall excuse an Advertiser from the obligation to pay for advertising previously published.
