Question
How should I prepare files for gold foil printing?
Answer
For gold foil printing, supply two elements: a black mask layer marking where the foil applies, plus a separate 4-color (4C) print file for the front and back.
- The black mask shows the foil areas. The 4C file carries your full-color artwork.
- Ask for a digital proof so you can check foil placement.
- Check the proof for setup or registration problems before you approve it.
- Approve the proof before the job moves to production.
