Question
How long does specialty printing take compared to standard orders?
Answer
Specialty printing usually takes a little longer than a standard CMYK job because techniques like foil stamping and embossing add production steps. Even so, most specialty orders move on a predictable timeline.
| Job type | Typical ship window |
|---|---|
| Standard CMYK | Fastest turnaround |
| Most specialty finishes | About 4 to 6 business days |
| Foil or embossing | Slightly longer due to the extra steps |
Some specialty products qualify for expedited turnaround, so check the individual product page for the exact timeline before you order.
