Have some cool line art you want to print in Gold Foil, Silver Foil, or Spot Gloss? Here are a few things to keep in mind when preparing your artwork.
Line weight 1pt or higher Thicker lines print better. We recommend 1pt and above |
Font size 10pt or higher 10pt and higher. Otherwise, the small gaps in typography will cause pooling |
|
Vector graphics Create your special finish in vector to ensure clean, crisp lines |
Small gaps Avoid small gaps less than 2pt wide to prevent pooling |
