insure that there is no artwork under the foil section. |
Step 1
Ensure the file matches the product's required dimensions. Ensure that the artwork is created in CMYK 300 dpi with 1/16 inch bleeds on all sides.
Step 2
Separate artwork into two files: one is for foil lamination, for which the artwork's color should be set to 100% black. Another file should be in the CMYK color space for artwork that is not foil printed.
Step 3
Export all files into PDF format with bleeds.
For best results, we strongly recommend you ensure the following to avoid delays and/or unexpected print results.
- Supply fonts larger than 8pt
- Use sans serif fonts
- Please keep foil design away from creases, folds and edges
- Avoid having artwork underneath the foil areas (i.e. using a mask instead)
- Avoid areas of heavy foil coverage with small/fine (non-foil) text or linework knocked out, as there is a tendency for these to fill in.
- Leave at least a 5mm (approximately 0.20") foil-free area around the edges. Extending the metallic foil design to the edge of the card creates a high possibility of the foil peeling off.
Please submit two PDF files:
- Regular full color artwork
- Metallic Foil template indicating the area of the Metallic Foil
On template file, indicate area of Metallic Foil by using 100% K. Non Foil areas should be white. For best results, ensure this file is vector.
If ordering a 4/4 job with Metallic Foil on only one side, please ensure that page 1 of your artwork is the Foil side
