2. Foil stamping elements are slightly pressed into the paper, but not as deep as letterpress.

4. Foil is divided into classic metallic shades (gold, silver, copper) and other colors. You should better specify the existence of exclusive colors. Available foil colors can be viewed here. Foil can be matte and glossy. Matte foil always looks sharper at the edges of images and clearer on textured and rough surfaces.

5. The minimum line thickness for foil stamping is 0.2 mm. Large solid areas should be avoided. Their presence should be warned before order and consulted about the possibility of printing.
