Galdor's Grip

No-table-needed solo fantasy card game · By Gregg Jewell

Copyright issues when printing

Hi all- I downloaded the game from https://greggjewell.itch.io/galdors-grip and paid for my copy.

I uploaded to Staples for printing and they will not allow my order to be printed due to copyright concerns as the cards themselves have the copyright logo on them. They've said I need a copyright release from the designer....

Has anyone else run into this issue? Or had success printing elsewhere?

Thanks!

What do you need from me to allow Staples to approve it? An official copyright release? Them to see this thread that  "I, Gregg Jewell, am the rightful owner and creator of the Galdor's Grip print and play card game, including all associated print and play materials. I hereby grant anyone the non-exclusive right to reproduce, distribute, and publicly display the aforementioned print and play version of the card game for personal purposes."

Btw, I use UPS store and upload the files online as an online print order and then pickup later once they're ready. Never had an issue.

Thanks Gregg! They mentioned an official copyright release but that just seems overkill. I've tried UPS but can't get the UI to preview the pages for some reason... I'll keep trying!

Back in June of 2023, something happened to the PDFs where they didn't work with the preview function (of any web browser or application) anymore. Not sure if it was an Adobe update or what, but it's been a little frustrating.

Ah good to know it's not just me! So you just go through with the print job (showing all black) and all works out OK?

Yes
