Guidelines for customer submitted artwork for creating metal die plates for hot foil stamping:
 
  • Best file formats are pdf, illustrator and photoshop.
  • Resolution needs to be at least 300 ppi
  • When submitting text, either convert the text to outlines or provide foont files with the art work
  • Font files are found in the fonts folder in your system folder of your computer. Contact us if you cannot find it.
  • Bigger is always better.  You can submit your atwrok larger than your die and we will shrink it to size.
  • We prefer to Never enlarge artwork especially if your die is small.
  • It is best to convert your art work to black and white before submission.

We also need to  know the final dimensions of the die plate to have a double check system in place.
