Process
From file to finished
Four steps. You approve before anything is produced, and it arrives assembled.
-
Send your artwork
Vector is best: AI, EPS, SVG or PDF. A 300 dpi PNG or PSD also works at final output size.
See the artwork guide → -
We check it and send a proof
Usually within 24 hours. We'll flag anything that won't cut or print cleanly — thin lines, gradients running across a cut edge, text that's too small to hold. You'll see a digital proof before anything is made.
-
You approve, we produce
Production starts on your approval. Rush is available if you have a convention date — tell us the date and we'll say honestly whether we can make it.
-
It arrives finished
Everything assembled. Backing cards printed. Bagged individually. Ready to go straight on the table.
Why we send a sample first
The gap between "looks good on a screen" and "looks good in your hand" is the whole thing. Acrylic has a weight, an edge and a transparency that a JPEG can't show you.
So we'd rather spend a few dollars making one piece than have you commit to 300 without knowing.
One check before we start
Every file is reviewed for third-party intellectual property before production. If your artwork contains a character, brand or likeness you don't own or licence, we'll decline the order and refund it in full. Read the IP policy →
