Metallic Printing File Requirements

Keep in mind the following file requirements as you create a design using the downloadable formats below:

1. The font size should be a minimum of 7 or 8 points. Avoid printing small text or fine lines in metallic.
2. Border and stroke must be more than 1.5 points.
3. Images and artwork should be at least 300 DPI.
4. All files should be in CMYK color mode.

How to Prepare Your Design for Metallic Printing

1. Apply metallic printing on lighter colors. The effect won’t be as apparent in darker colors.
2. Create two layers to distinguish the elements printed in ink from the elements with metallic printing. Both files should have the same size.
   1. The regular CMYK layer shows which elements are printed in ink. Apply 15% K on the area that will be printed in metallic color.
   2. The metallic printing layer only shows the elements that will appear as metallic. The element(s) that will be printed in metallic colors should have the same location as seen on the CMYK layer. Apply 100% K on the metallic area and white on the areas with no metallic printing.

   The images below show the difference between the two layers:

   
3. Alignment is crucial to the file preparation process. The CMYK and metallic printing layers should both have the same size. Common elements must be in the same position on both layers.
4. Check for a white "halo" around the knockout area or where two colors overlap on the layer. To prevent this effect on the CMYK layer, grow or stroke the metallic area in mask by 1 point. This allows the metallic silver to blend with the CMYK area, which reduces the appearance of a halo. Alternatively, you can add more color to the knockout area to reduce the halo effect.
