FAQs
DO YOU ONLY DESIGN FOR LETTERPRESS?
No, in-fact, we design for all types of printing. We understand that not every project is letterpress friendly or even appropriate for letterpress, and we will make the best recommendation for your business and your specific projects.
CAN I BRING MY OWN DESIGN IN TO BE PRINTED?
Yes, while most of the work we do is custom designed in-house, we are able to print your letterpress friendly artwork on our presses. There will be a standard setup fee and of course, the cost of printing. We are always happy to help with client-designed projects. Please contact me with questions about your artwork and details on what will make your design letterpress friendly.
CAN YOU COMBINE DIGITAL AND LETTERPRESS PRINTING?
Yes, in some cases it would be recommended to utilize both digital and letterpress printing methods. It can actually produce quite stunning results! An example of this would be a birth announcement where a photo plus letterpress printing is combined. You cannot print a color photo on letterpress, it would have to be converted to halftone, which is a very cool look, but probably not how a birth announcement is presented. Therefor, you would first print the photo on the paper stock, and then run the announcements on the letterpress with all the fun details.
HOW MUCH DO YOUR SERVICES COST?
Every project is different, so every estimate will be done based on the needs of each client. Don’t be afraid to come in for a free consultation, I wont bite. It’s important to talk through your ideas, or help out with some direction if you have no idea what you need! I can put together an estimate, or help with some ideas that would fit your budget. So let’s chat about it!
WILL I RECEIVE THE ORIGINAL FILES?
Most clients don’t have the software I use for design specific work. However I will deliver your project files in the appropriate file formats that you can use.
