Lead time (11-18 business days)
Design: 5-7 business days
All design work is outsourced to freelance designers familiar with the UT’s visual identity. They provide a time and cost estimate in advance. You’ll receive a concept and can request corrections. If the input doesn’t meet the requirements, Traffic will inform you promptly so you can resubmit. Reprints without changes skip this step
Print: 5-10 business days
The delivery date is stated on the order confirmation, sent by the print supplier. Production time depends on the quantity, product type, and finish. For example, flyers or posters take less time to produce than a brochure.
Delivery to desired location: 1 business day
The suppliers deliver the packages to the Central Postal Office and they send it directly to your office.
Online documents need to be accessible As from 23 September 2019 every document you want to make available to visitors of your website, has to meet the accessibility guidelines (WCAG 2.1). This means that every document on a utwente.nl/... website needs to be readable to all audiences, regardless of any disability.
In short, you need to be aware of the following:
- Designers need more time to be able to add paragraph styles, code layers and properties. How much time it will take depends on the content quantity.
- When creating the input for text, you should add an alternative text to (informative) images and photos. In other words, a short description of what can be seen on pictures and logo's.
More information about this regulation can be found on the page Accessibility of websites and online documents.
