Specification

Artwork Requirements - See our business card templates attached

Artwork Requirements for Spot UV

Spot UV is an area of Ultra Violet gloss coating that creates a glossy finish to targeted areas of your print job. This works well on larger areas and as a pattern on a flat background, and it is not recommended for small text or thin lines.

Supplying your files

When supplying files for artwork containing Spot UV, you must supply artwork for the spot UV itself as well as your artwork. The spot UV artwork should consist of solid black shapes (100% K only, no cyan, magenta or yellow) in the exact position on the page where the spot UV is required, ideally in vector as opposed to bitmap formula. The Spot UV artwork should be on a separate page but have the same dimensions and crop marks in the same position as the design artwork.

Please note, Spot UV is applied using a process similar to screen printing, and has registration tolerances of approximately ±0.5 mm and is therefore not recommended for small text or thin lines.

Spot UV Business Cards

Please supply as 1 print-ready PDF file, containing 4 pages, as follows:

Page 1: Artwork Front

Page 2: Artwork Back

Page 3: Spot UV Front

Page 4: Spot UV Back

Artwork Requirements for Gold or Silver Foiling

Metallic foil products, such as business cards, flyers and greeting cards, require a few simple steps to ensure the artwork file prints correctly. Currently, we are only capable of foiling a single side on a product, so please take that into consideration when creating your design. Foiling works best on simple and bold graphics. Thin lines are more difficult to foil, so try and avoid using script fonts and thin line weights.

Double Sided with foil.

For foil products, we require 2 extra pages within your PDF in order for the file to run through our printing system. In total, we need a 4-page PDF for a double-sided CMYK print with a single side foiled.

Page 1 is the print front.

Page 2 is the print back.

Page 3 is the foil page that will be printed on top of page 1.

Page 4 is a blank page.

The third page of your PDF will be the foiling page that is printed on top of page one. The foil is printed last, so will sit on top of any elements that you have on the first printed page.

Single Sided with foil.

For a single-sided print with foil, we request that you still supply a 4-page PDF to run through our system, however, you will need to insert two blank pages with only pages 1 and 3 having artwork on them.

Page 1 is the print front.

Page 2 is a blank page.

Page 3 is the foil page that will be printed on top of page 1.

Page 4 is a blank page.

Tip.

If your design requires a standard colour print on the front, and the foil page on the back, then you will need to rearrange your PDF page structure to work with this.

Vector graphics for foil.

The foil elements need to be designed using a vector graphic. We are unable to foil graphics that have been rasterised as they are not clear enough for our foiling machines to produce. Please use vector-based design software when creating your artwork.

2pt line weight.

The minimum line weight we can produce is 2pt thick. Anything that is below this will result in a patchy foil, and we will refuse to produce the product.

100% Black for foil elements.

All the foil elements must be supplied as 100% black. Our system colour checks the third page within your PDF and if it detects any other colour then it will fail to print correctly. Please make sure that the foiling elements are set to only black.

Foil Tolerance

During the production of foiling, a 3mm tolerance for movement is permissible. Achieving perfect alignment is challenging due to the hot pressing of the foil onto the print. Approximately 3mm of movement is expected during the application of the foil. Please factor this in when designing.
