Is letterpress printing a good choice for my project?
A few factors need to be considered when choosing letterpress printing for your stationery:
- Firstly, time! We can print using a letter press method here in India or overseas. The turnaround time can be anywhere from 5- 30 days depending.
- Secondly, cost! Due to the labour-intensive nature of letterpress is a more costly form of printing. Blocks need to be designed and made and then embossed onto the paper. This additional craftsmanship can add anywhere from 150% – 500% on top of what you would expect to pay for digital or offset printing.
- Thirdly, design! Letterpress is limited in the amount of colour that can be used. Generally a letterpress product focusses on one or two colours only. Photos and full colour are better served with digital or offset printing.
Letterpress paper stock options
Letterpress papers are normally uncoated paper stocks (a paper without a shiny coating on it). Letterpress papers come in a range of thick 600gsm white uncoated papers, from off-white natural looking paper through to bright whites, warm whites and natural white papers with great textures that complement the overall tactile feel.
