Question

Do I need a special file setup for holographic foil?

Answer

Yes. The holographic foil artwork is submitted as a separate layer or spot color channel, ideally in vector format, so production knows exactly where to apply it.

  • Provide the foil artwork on its own layer or spot color channel.
  • Use vector art where possible for crisp edges.
  • Keep foil shapes bold and solid rather than fine or tinted.
  • Follow your printer's file setup guidelines and check a proof before printing to catch issues.
