⚠️ IMPORTANT — Metal Printing Characteristics
Black metal cards rely on high contrast. Light colours, white or metallic effects
produce the best visibility. Very small text or thin lines may not appear clearly on metal surfaces.
📌 1) Size Selection
- Please ensure the selected size matches your artwork exactly.
- Incorrect sizing may affect edge alignment or positioning.
🧾 2) Single / Double Sided Upload
- Single-sided print: only Artwork–Front Page upload will appear.
- Double-sided print: both Artwork–Front and Artwork–Back uploads will appear.
- Please upload the correct design to the corresponding section.
🎨 3) Artwork Design Tips (Metal Cards)
- Use light colours or white for better contrast on black metal.
- Avoid very small text, thin lines or complex gradients.
- Solid vector artwork gives the cleanest and sharpest result.
- Large filled areas may appear slightly textured — this is normal for metal finishing.
🔢 4) Variable Data (Serial No. / QR Code)
- Please provide an Excel file containing the serial numbers or QR data.
- Upload the Excel file in Additional Notes or attach it during checkout.
- Indicate clearly how many pieces are required for each row of data.
- Example:
Order quantity = 2
Excel data rows = 10
Total output = 10 rows × 2 pcs = 20 metal cards
⏳ 5) Artwork Submission
- Artwork should be uploaded before 5:00 PM. Late uploads may affect production schedule.
