LETTERPRESS DIMENSIONAL PRINTING | NYC
Publicide offers high quality and fast letterpress printing in New York City, and can make your digital design into a tactile, memorable three-dimensional object. Our vintage, early 20th century Heidelberg presses stamp your text & design directly into the page. Indenting into paper creates shadows, adding depth and dimension to your artwork that offset and digital don’t supply. However much we might love the exact efficiency of digital and offset printing, it’s tough for these methods to compare to typography deeply impressed into plush cotton papers (up to .125 inches thick) with flawless registration and touchably crisp results.
Give your wedding, fundraiser, or bat mitzvah invitations a memorable keepsake quality with letterpress printing on downy soft 100% cotton paper (although any of our luxe paper stock options will lend themselves to the technique). Pick your favorite Pantone ink colors of the season—multicolor letterpress registration is a specialty of ours that can be effortlessly achieved on business cards, personal stationery, invites and even corporate printing. Add specialty custom details, such as an embossed logo or monogram for a touch of the grandiose. Finish your print run with metallic gold or silver gilded edge for an ultra-polished dose of refinement.
The letterpress print technique is best for line based illustrations, artwork, type and logo printing, but call or email us today to see if your design is letterpress-ready!
PRICING + PRINT PRODUCTION NOTES FOR LETTERPRESS PRINTING
Pricing for letterpress printing is based on quantity, paper type and the number of processes and machines that will be used to create the card. Custom pricing begins around $250 for color printing with 250 quantity, printed on 18pt / 130# Uncoated Cover. More elaborate and custom production specs can run the price up considerably so it’s important to get your quote before proceeding. Production time is usually around 7-10 working days for simple custom projects with more work-intensive projects taking longer. Turnaround time is calculated from the date of PDF proof approval. If your color printing project has a hard due-date please let us know when making your request. Email us with your design file or specs to receive a custom quote for your printing project. All projects must have a custom quote number to proceed.
RUSH PRINTING LETTERPRESS PRINTING
Some letterpress printing specs are available for rush service in less than 7 working days. Due to the preparation of the spec, the availability of materials, and the individual setup required for custom printing, it is difficult to produce most custom jobs in less than 5 working days. To inquire about a rush job, please email artwork, specs and desired completion date ASAP to rush@publicide.com. If we’re able to accommodate your schedule we will reply with pricing and additional costs for the rush.
