About color printing
Final finishing touches
Die cutting
In die cutting, shapes are cut out of a page with sharp knives. It is
most often used to create attention-getting documents, or for
packaging with unique shapes, like video box covers.
Lamination
Laminated documents are encased in a thin, washable plastic
coating to protect frequently handled documents from the
elements and human wear and tear.
Varnish
Varnishing protects documents from the elements and can also be
used as a design to enhance a document. Depending on the
desired effect, gloss or matte (dull) varnish can be applied to an
entire document (flood coverage) to give it a smooth overall finish,
or to specific portions of a page (spot coverage) to highlight some
parts of the document while de emphasizing others.
Embossing
When a document is embossed, it is pressed between two dies (or
molds) to create a raised or lowered texture on the sheet. This
works best on uncoated cover weight papers.
