Can artwork hold up development?
Yes. Two separate project records show the next step waiting on final vector artwork.
Two different dependencies
| Project | What was waiting for the file |
|---|---|
| Perforation development | An Adobe Illustrator (AI) vector file was still needed before the perforation application could continue through technical review. |
| Multi-design trial order | The buyer planned to send final vector artwork for each design so digital mockups and the quotation could be prepared. |
The required file depends on the next job
These records do not support one universal artwork checklist for every hat. They do show a practical rule for buyers: ask what the next task is. A technical perforation review and a quotation/mockup stage can both need vector artwork, but for different reasons.
