Foil and Embossing
Die Handling You may provide a blind embossing, die cutting, foil embossing, or foil stamping die for re-orders. No additional charges apply.
Die Types Various types of dies are available. Magnesium dies: These single level dies are used for foil stamping. They will be recycled after use. Copper dies: These single level dies are used for foil stamping and blind embossing. Copper dies provide crisp quality without the expense of a brass die. Copper dies are recycled after use.
Foil and Embossing( cont.)
Brass dies: These single or multi-level sculpted dies are used for blind embossing or foil embossing. These dies produce a deep, crisp image with well-defined edges. NOTE: fine lines and type do not foil emboss well. Fax, mail, or e-mail artwork for a quote.
Foil Embossing
This is a process that combines foil stamping and embossing into one press run. A brass die is required for this process. Send artwork for a quote.
Foil Stamping or Blind Embossing
For orders with foil stamping or blind embossing up to 36 square inches within two areas, there is no additional charge for the die. For orders not within these restrictions or special foil colors, call or send artwork for a quote. Charges for dies vary according to the size and amount of detail in your design. We will notify you of any additional costs before processing your order. Send actual sized artwork or a sample for an estimated die charge.
Additional Die Set-Up
If more than two dies are used, an additional die setup charge and die charge are needed.
Ink Four Color Process
Files must be submitted in CMYK format.
Color Matching
Industry standard ink densities are used for PANTONE ® PMS ® inks. If color matching is needed, it must be clarified and approved before production begins.
Heavy Ink Coverage
Any solid or screened areas exceeding 15 % of the front or back cover( 4” x 4” area) must be flat printed. Any solid areas exceeding 45 %( 7” x 7” area) of the front or back cover will require the heavy ink coverage add on price. Additional production time will apply. Heavy metallic ink is not available.
Inside Copy
Printing inside above pockets requires an extra charge due to the additional press run required. Call for quote. Additional production time is also required.
Pocket Copy
When laying out copy for folder pockets, allow ⅞” additional margin for reinforced edges. Printing on folder pockets is not considered inside copy.
Screens
A screen is a dot pattern of a solid ink color that makes that color look lighter. For example, when red is screened it looks pink. There is no additional charge for screens. Standard screen percentage is 20 %, which will be used unless otherwise indicated. We use a line screen of 120. Screened foil is available.
Standard Inks
All standard inks are translucent inks. We do not recommend printing ink on dark colored stocks due to the ink discoloring. A no-charge reprint is not available when printing inks on dark colored stocks.
