Cardinal Colorprint Printing Troubleshooting and Tips
Production Tips
When the new project is still in the design stage, here are some helpful production tips to keep in mind:

Paper: Choosing the right paper is essential for the success of your printed piece. Paper comes in multiple different finishes, weights, and colors, making it important to find the right paper for your piece.

Varnishing Techniques: Varnishes, aqueous coating, and UV coating can all produce different eye catching effects. Consider how the coating will impact your piece and how it will help you achieve your desired goals.

Color: Depending on your project and the requirements from you/your client, a spot color might be needed to achieve the right look. Keep in mind that some PMS colors do not convert to 4 color process as well as others. If a corporate color(s) is important to you/your client, the best way to handle this is to run it as a separate PMS color.

Bindery: Many different finishing techniques can be used to make your piece stand out, like folding, stitching, die cutting, and embossing. These are just a few examples of what can be done to match your vision and your budget.
