Our Production Process

Design templates
Once you decide on a size, we email you the design templates, which include your design and pre-press checklists, the outer card template and the inner sheet template.

Preflight + Proofing
Once we receive your artwork we will then take your files and create pre-proofs for your review. The following outlines our Design Guidelines and Pre-press checklists (PDF Format).

Manufacturing
Upon final sign-off of proofs we will then begin the printing, folding and binding process.

Materials + Stocks
Our standard outer card stocks are 10pt or 18pt C1S (coated 1 side) board. Our standard inner sheet stock ranges from 40lb to 60lb uncoated and coated.
