Guidelines
For optimal results in letterpress and foil printing, your artwork must be set up correctly. Please read the requirements carefully:
-
LETTERPRESS AND FOIL DESIGNS: We need the artwork supplied as vectors. We recommend using Adobe Illustrator or InDesign for your designs. Avoid Photoshop, as bitmap images tend to produce less crisp results. Large areas of solid colour or reverse-outs are also not recommended, as letterpress excels with text and line work. Ensure all text and shapes are converted to outlines or paths.
CANVA DESIGNS: We are happy to work with your Canva designs however there is a design fee to convert them for you to where we need them set up for printing.
DIGITAL PRINTING: Please provide a print-ready PDF file with 3mm bleed and crop marks.
-
All text must be no smaller than 8pt.
-
All lines and strokes should be no thinner than 0.5pt unless otherwise specified.
-
All line work to be 0.25pt and 100% Magenta (CMYK values: C=0, M=100, Y=0, K=0)
-
Colour should be set to 100% black (CMYK values: C=0, M=0, Y=0, K=100) unless otherwise specified. For letterpress, please specify the PMS Uncoated colour(s) you wish to use (note that ink is mixed by hand). For foil printing, indicate the foil colour required.
Include a composite PDF for reference when aligning two or more colours.
