2017 Insert and Shipping/Receiving
SPECIFICATIONS AND DEADLINES
1.
Insert pallets should be clearly labeled with the product name,
total quantity, amount per skid or box, the total amount of skids
and the insertion date.
2.
If inserts are re-packaged, they should be re-packaged in the
original form sent by the printer (same number of pallets, same
amount on pallet, same number in a bundle, etc.)
Inserts
Width: Measured along the spine
Minimum
Maximum
3”
11”
3.
Inserts should be packaged by insert date. If a product is
running multiple dates, then it should be separated as such.
Height: Measured perpendicular to spine
Minimum
Maximum
4”
10.5”
4.
Inserts need to be at least .005” thick. Thinner sheets will often
stick together causing “multiples.”
Pagination: Broadsheet
Minimum
Maximum
4 pages
96 pages
Pagination: Tabloid
5.
Different inserts should NEVER be packaged on the same pallet.
Verifying the count may be extremely difficult without removing
all the bundles or boxes.
Minimum
Maximum
4 Pages
120 Pages
Pagination: Single Sheet
Minimum
.005”*
6.
Insert bundles should not be tied (strapped) if possible. Strapping
causes the product to curl and can make it difficult to feed into
the insert machine.
7.
No more than two turns (compensating stacks) per bundle would
be optimum. Additional turns make it more difficult for the
inserter to feed the machine.
8.
Inserts should be stacked flat and not standing on edge.
9.
Deadlines
a. Insertion orders due 21 business days prior to publication.
b. Inserts due 14 business days prior to publication.

FSI Specifications:
The Garden Island uses a 44” web width for all printed products.
4 page tabs and higher must also be at least .005” thick.
*
Additional Notes:
Offset stock can have a different thickness than glossy stock for the
same paper weight. Color Express inserts are usually printed on 60#
stock. 60# offset stock measures .0045” thick while 60# glossy
(or enamel) stock is only .003” of an inch – a huge difference (50%).

Late delivery of any pre-printed inserts will need prior approval. Contact
your sales representative for delivery extension dates. All pre-printed
inserts delivered after deadline will be assessed at $1,500 late fee per
publication, if inserts are delivered after the agreed extension date, a
$200 a day surcharge will be imposed per publication. Tax will also be
added to the surcharge.

Industry Standards / Liabilities
All camera-ready files must be accompanied by a proof of the file which represents a
complete ad in its proper size. Proofs reduced to fit a small page must indicate the print has

are sent on the same media the correct file name must appear on each proof.
All colors must be created with a CMYK model and all files should be prepared for
process color separation. No RGB, Pantone or PMS colors.
As is the industry standard, it is the sole responsibility of the originator to properly prepare
and provide all files according to recommendation outlined by Oahu Publications. Failure to
provide files as required can cause unpredictable errors when the files are output.
The Garden Island and Oahu Publications Inc. assumes no liability for any work that does
not adhere to these guidelines. For additional information, call your Account Executive.
