THE LITTLE DETAILS THAT MATTER
Good design.
Room to breathe.
Tap a detail to see it on the business cards.
Keep your logo, contact information, and other important details at least ⅛″ inside the trim. A little space helps protect them from small shifts in cutting.
Gloss will not take a pen. If people write on your card, an appointment or a note, pick the matte.
Not a designer? Still your kind of place.
Bring what you have. We’ll help get it ready and show you a proof.

A LITTLE MORE CLARITY
Glad
you asked.
Still have something on your mind about 16pt Gloss business cards?
How long until I have them?
Two to three business days on press once your proof is approved, plus shipping. Shipping is included in the price.
What does 16pt mean?
The thickness of the card. 16pt is a solid everyday weight - heavier than a copy-shop card, and it holds the gloss coat well.
Can I order cards for several people at once?
Yes. Up to four versions of the same design - different names, same layout - go in one order as one PDF with one proof.
Can I write on a gloss card?
Not well. The UV gloss repels ink. If people will write on it, choose the matte.
Will I see a proof before it prints?
Yes. Every order gets an online PDF proof by email for content and positioning. A printed hard-copy proof is available on request. Nothing goes to press until you approve, and production time starts from your approval.
What if my file is not print-ready?
Send what you have. We set it up to the guidelines above - bleed, safe area, resolution - and show you the proof before anything prints.
