How do I set up artwork for black postcard stock with white ink?

Yes, white ink prints well on black postcard stock and is the standard way to make text and highlights pop against a dark background. It takes a little file setup so the press knows where to lay the white.

• Select the option: choose the white ink option in the online price calculator
• Build the base: design your art over the black stock as usual
• Separate the white: place everything that should print white on its own layer or spot channel, clearly named
• Flag it: note in your file which elements are white ink so nothing is missed

Keeping white as its own layer prevents it from being flattened into the artwork and printing incorrectly.
