Please also send a hard copy of your proposed advertisement by surface mail or email a copy in pdf format.

Redwood has promised to acknowledge receipt of all advertisements submitted by email and to send you a digital colour proof for you to check before publication. Please send any final changes by email or surface mail, since telephoned changes can be misunderstood.
