Question

What type of files do you accept for Metallic Foil Business Cards?

Answer

For Metallic Foil Business Cards, use an accepted format and remember that foil jobs also need a Black Mask file.

  • Print-ready PDF is strongly preferred for the sharpest, most predictable results.
  • We also accept .jpg, .tiff, and .eps files.
  • Flatten layers and embed or outline all fonts before you upload so nothing shifts in production.

Since foil is a special effect, include a separate Black Mask file that marks exactly where the metallic finish should print.
