TPPC is not responsible for improperly prepared files or making corrections to these files. A fee will be charged to make any changes. If the guidelines are not followed, TPPC cannot guarantee the reproduction of the advertisement. The Vendor assumes responsibility for the advertisement and must either send the file again or use the existing file. If you would like TPPC to create an advertisement for you at a nominal fee, please contact us at info@tppc.org.

Also, NO advertisements will be reused this year. ALL vendors must send us an electronic copy of the advertisement they will like to publish in this year's TPPC Vendors Guide.

The deadline for all vendor advertisements, registration forms, and company information is December 30, 2004. This deadline will be strictly adhered to this year.

However, a copy of your advertisement will be inserted into the guide.
