Custom Stamping Guide

Custom Stamp Artwork examples

 Requirements:

Images should be submitted as black and white, camera-ready art at 300 DPI or higher resolution. This is necessary to achieve a clean stamp. For best results, please provide a vector-based file.

File extensions accepted:
[.ai, .pdf, .eps, .svg, .png, .jpg, .tif, .psd]

Coverage areas:

Avoid solid areas larger than ½”. Large, solid areas cause incomplete stamps when air gets trapped under the foil. Outlining artwork helps in most cases.

Bridging:

Areas that are too small may “bridge” or fill in. Very fine lines in conjunction with solid areas can produce “cut through” from uneven distribution of stamping pressure.

Text:

Text size should be 12 points or higher. To avoid letters bridging on to each other, select a font that is well-spaced between each character.

Avoid the center:

If possible, leave the center of the design blank or with very little line work. The sprue, located on the underside, center of a disc can cause drops outs due to an unevenness on the flight plate.
