Before printing
- Print files
- Show colour artwork, white ink and cutting lines on separate layers. Clearly identify both faces.
- Sample check
- Review the card against light and dark backgrounds. Check fine text, QR codes and corner finishes at actual size.
- White underprint
- Selective white ink makes logos and text stand out on clear PVC. White and transparent areas are defined separately in the artwork.
