Instructions for submitting your own artwork and creating your own designs
DOWNLOAD TEMPLATE FOR YOUR DESIGN
ROUND / HEX 1 / HEX 2
All
artwork supplied must be 'Production Ready'. Black and white
that has sharp, clean lines and require no retouching. Jpg
images must be 300dpi, min size A5. When emailing artwork
please name your files with your first and last name or company
name. All artwork is reversed at the engraving process, please don't submit a mirror image for engraving. Please create your design using the above template.
Please
ensure when using fonts in your design that you save your fonts
as 'curves' or send the font as an attachment. Thin fonts
do not engrave well - for the best results - go for chunky! Minimum
point size 8-12 approx, depending on the font used.
Bear
in mind when creating designs for laser engraving, that you
do not use thin lines in your design, the laser burns deep,
so thin areas may not make an imprint in the wax. Black filled
areas work best where possible. Thin fonts will need to have
a contour applied to make them heavier.
If
using Corel Draw - please view your design in Wireframe mode
- all paths must be closed, with no crossing lines. All lines
used within in your design must be no thicker than a hareline
(approx 0.001cm), you may need to add a 'contour' to your line
to thicken it and remove the original line.
