How do I best prepare my
Business
Cards
for printing on coffee mugs?
The easiest way to prepare your Business Cards for
printing on ceramic coffee mugs and cups is to scan them on your
flatbed scanner with a resolution of at least 300 dpi's (dots
per inch) AND in the dimensions as they're to appear on the
finished coffee mug. (Details on
scanning can be found
here.)
Make sure that your Business Cards do not have
any blemishes nor other "impurities" and should, preferably, be
on as white a background as possible, as otherwise the
background will also be printed on the mug.
Our mug prices
include a decoration on one side of the mug and the max. area
that can be decorated for our 11-oz mugs at this price is: 3" x 3".
Should your
card be larger - but never taller than 3" - then a small
surcharge is applied. (See our price list.)
Please note that for
every coffee mug with a different Business card on it we have to
charge our single-mug price. However, differently decorated
coffee mugs sent to the same shipping address can be lumped
together for the S&H price break indicated for the total
quantity of mugs shipped to one and the same address. For
individual mug shipments, our individual S&H rate applies.
Should you have several different Business Cards for different
mugs you could scan then all onto one page. However this is not
the ideal solution and it is much better to scan them
individually, each into one file/directory on your hard drive (giving
each scanned Business card a new file name such as, for example:
card01.tif, card02.tif, etc.) and then compress this directory
into one file with a compressor such as WinZip.
The resulting
file can then easily be
FTP'd
to us.
The preferred
file format for Business Cards is .tif and it has to be in the
PC format as we're totally PC based. Please remember that we'll
reproduce your Business Cards AS IS so it's to your
advantage to have a clean and clear scan and the card is in the
dimensions as you would like them to appear on your coffee mugs.
We cannot reproduce Business Cards that are send to us with a
resolution of less than 300 dpi's AND are not in the right size.
