You can make changes to text right up until the point of the final rebuild with the correct spine dimensions (after we’ve been told the final page count), and it won’t cost anything to do so.  If, however, you’re making changes to the artwork itself after the go-ahead has been given, then you’ll be quoted in advance so you know how much you’d be paying for the changes.  There would be a standard £100 GBP fee (our fee for making considerable changes to previously approved cover art) as well as fees for any stock images we’ve purchased that are no longer being used within the artwork.  Depending on how long it takes to source additional assets, there may also be a fee to find replacements.  This is why we ask clients to ensure everything is to their satisfaction before giving the go-ahead on artwork – once we’ve been told to go ahead, we’ll purchase all the necessary licensed images and spend the time rebuilding, blending, and adjusting colour grading.  Any changes thereafter would be subject to the aforementioned fees, but we’d prefer it not come to that and would ask that clients be certain before going ahead.
