PDF Conversion Services
All material provided at TheCityEdition.com website is free for use over the World Wide Web. Conversion involves transferring copy from a secion of the website into another media, specifically a PDF file, 8 1/2 X 11 inches in dimension that is printable on a computer printer. The document will be emailed to the customer, usually within 2 business days of a received payment. It's the customer's responsiblilty to insure printer compatibility and the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader on their computer before placing an order. A link to a sample test page is included on the order form.
No refunds are available once a PDF document is generated and emailed. However, a customer may request a smaller-sized file if any memory issues arise with the high-quality print document. (Contact editor@thecityedition.com.)
In most cases, the latest version of the website guide is converted to printable format. Occasionally, not all changes will be reflected in the document.
Due to the copyright protection of their owners, photos are not included in PDF documents.

Advertising
The following paragraphs cover important information that you should familiarize with before submitting ad reservations, payments and artwork to the newspaper. Although 99% of transactions are processed smoothly, from time to time misunderstandings may arise. Therefore, we have devised terms and conditions that clearly describe our business polices. You will be required to accept these terms whenever you make an ad reservation.
Content Limitations
The City Edition is generally a PG-rated publication. We do not run display or classified ads involving commercial sex (massage parlors, X-rated clubs, escort services, porn shops, etc.). We do not publish personals or ads containing text, photos, graphics or cartoons that are considered X-rated or contain foul or vulgar language. Also unacceptable are graphics depicting excessive violence, or any other image the editor deems R-rated or X-rated.
If there is any question in this regard, it's the advertiser's responsibility to contact TheCityEdition.com before placing an ad. In any case, should the ad have to be rejected, the advertiser will receive a full refund of their payment. (See Refunds and Credits below.)
Space Conflicts
The City Edition makes every effort to accommodate advertiser requests regarding ad placement. However, when space conflicts arise (i.e. there are more ads than available space in a section of the newspaper), priority is first given to ads purchased with premium placement options, and secondly with those ads that were earliest reserved.
Refunds and Credits
Ad reservations are non-binding until paid for online.
If you cancel your ad after it has appeared you are liable for one month's charge, with a minimum of $35, and any design/layout costs if TheCityEdition.com designed the ad.
Current ad prices are stated on our online rate card. We are not responsible for pricing errors which result from server malfunctions, shopping cart miscalculations, computer hacking, or our own occasional ineptness. The advertiser is liable for any adjustments, so please refer to the rate card or call us if you have any question about pricing.
Check Processing and Bounced Check Charge
TheCityEdition.com generally accepts ads only through PayPal. In the event a check for payment is accepted, it must clear our bank prior to the ad's appearance.
A fee of $25 will be assessed for any NSF check (i.e. a bounced check).
Submitting Artwork in Proper Format
You are responsible for reviewing our artwork specifications and submitting ads in one of the acceptable formats listed. (Most ads are submitted by email in JPEG, GIF, or PDF format.) Camera-ready artwork that is incomplete, damaged, cannot be scanned, or which violates our content limitations policy (explained above) will not appear.
TheCityEdition.com is not responsible for any artwork that gets damaged or misplaced while in our possession.
We reserve the right to assess a 15% service charge for ads purchased online by advertisers whom we have previously refused service and whom we have asked not to submit further ad requests.
If for some reason (other than those outlined above) an ad doesn't run as scheduled, the advertiser agrees to hold TheCityEdition.com liable only for refunding the cost of the ad.
-------------------------------------
Other Terms
We reserve the right to refuse service for reasons others than those mentioned above.
TheCityEdition.com does not not take credit card information over the phone or by email. We do not accept cash payments under any circumstances, and checks will be returned unless aan agreement to accept one is arranged beforehand.
The advertiser or customer agrees not to hold The City Edition responsible for scams perpetrated by individuals or businesses posing to be us in an attempt to extract information from you, or payments of any kind. (Please review our Internet Security for tips on how to avoid being victimized in this manner.)
In checking the "Accept" box at the time of purchase, you agree to abide by these terms and conditions.
