Author Alteration - Any change made by the customer after copy or artwork has been given to the service bureau, separator or printer. The change could be in copy, specifications or both. When a client asks for a change in the text or artwork after it has already been submitted and layout approved and especially if the file has already gone out for printing, this is an AA or Author's Alteration. Author's alterations or corrections are typically changes the client requests that aren't the result of typographical errors or mistakes that weren't in the original copy. The client may simply decide they want to use a different photo than originally planned or a change in job title may necessitate changes in a bio or the title on a business card. These changes asually result in cost or scope changes on the job.
