Printing options explained

Huddleston engraved motif 2

Die stamping or copperplate printing

Also known as engraving – offers a level of precision
and elegance that is hard to beat.  The ink is raised
and crisp.

 

Vitue-invitation-2-300x200 V2

Letterpress printing

Devised by Mr Guttengurg 500 years ago, this
method of printing has seen a resurgence in
the USA in recent years.

It offers a beautiful, 3 dimensional impression.
A raised surface is inked and pressed into a soft
paper.

This produces very distinctive results.

 

Ralston motif

Thermography

This is a more affordable version of engraving. The
item is printed with ink, then the ink is coated
with a fine layer of powder before being heat
treated – the powder fuses with the ink to give
a raised print.

Ryan embossed initials

Blind embossing

This creates raised relief images. The results are very
tactile.

 

Patton OOS

Plate sinking

This creates a square or rectangle acting as a border.
