Artwork Guide
Let's make your engraving look amazing!
Please check out the tips below to make sure your custom artwork comes out looking as good as possible.
Picking the Right Artwork Look
The best looking artwork for engraving will look good in just black and white without too many shades of grey. We will always do our best with more complex designs, but please be aware that difficult designs may require modifications to format for engraving. Also please keep in mind that the engraving process results in a bright white design, so colors may have to be combined or outlined in order to look good.
No Logo or Design Yet?
Feel free to email us an idea or concept and we'll do our best to make it a reality for you!
File Types and Sending the Files
The absolute best file types you can send are vector files (.AI, .EPS, .SVG)
If there are no vector files available, please send the artwork in the largest files you have available and use the templates from the download link in the product to help us visualize how you would like it layed out. This helps us a lot, even if it's just a rought sketch on paper showing where you want everything to go. Finally, send all the files to: Tony@puffalopedesigns.com
A Note About Fonts!
It is VERY important to send the name of any fonts you used if you can. Many logos can have the type come out a little off with the conversion process and telling us what fonts you prefer (or simply saying you are okay with anything) will help speed up the process.
Approve Your Proof and Crack a Cold One!
We'll send you a proof of what your design will look like. Please double check all spelling and artwork and let us know if you need any changes. After we hear back from you, we'll get to work and you can sit back and wait for a shipping notification!
