Printing and production of New Year's cards, greeting cards to order.
Appearance and quality finished products depend on the definition of a number of production criteria and the technology of work.
Diagram 1. General components of the production of postcards
Knowing the general sequence of work, let's try to analyze the production stages, taking into account the existing options.Development of design and preparation of the layout of the postcard
A modern postcard is considered not only as a printing product, but also as an artistic product with unique graphics and unusual decor elements. Artists, designers and typesetters are working on the creation of its layout, preparing the design that corresponds to the theme and purpose of future products. In this case, illustrations of a different nature can be used: author's drawings, reproductions, photos, collages, caricatures, etc. Possible individual development fonts, ornaments, adding text and more.The determination of the priority size of products can be carried out both before and during the creation of the design. At the same stage, a decision is made about the presence or absence of the type of folding (folding), which is more often single and is performed in the middle, along the long side of the product.
The most common postcard formats are:
- "Classic" 148x210mm (opened 297x210mm);
- "Euro" 200x100mm (opening 200x200mm);
- "FlyCards" 105x146mm ("one-page");
- standard formats A4, A5 and A6 - folding and in a "single-page" version.
Production technology
Officially, there are four main technologies for creating postcards:- high - used for the production of products with thin fonts, "written with a pen", openwork ornaments and other details that require fine drawing to convey;
- deep - is the most popular and makes it easy to create multi-million copies. The main difference of this technology is the possibility of transferring shades not with the help of paint, but with the force of embossing (by means of the depth of pressing the printing needle);
- flat - allows you to create ordinary smooth postcards, colorful and multi-color;
- stencil - designed for the production of printing with an additional layer of paint, with the help of varnishing. Gives the opportunity to give products a smell and shine.
Printing Method and Material Selection
Postcards can be created by offset, digital or silk-screen printing.
Scheme 2. Methods for printing postcards
Unlike silk-screen and offset printing methods, the digital printing method allows you to make adjustments to single copies of the product. It is used exclusively for small print runs. How more quantity created copies of products, the more profitable are offset and silk-screen printing.
Paper is selected according to the design, application method and planned finishing. Coated glossy or matte paper with a density of 250 g/m2 to 300 g/m2 is more commonly used. Thin cardboard and design materials can also be used.The type of ink is determined in accordance with the printing method, the types of printed material (paper) and the desired quality of the resulting print. It is possible to use paints with the addition of varnish, which create the effect of a brilliant image and text that shimmers with gloss.

The company is ready to produce any number of postcards in accordance with your individual requirements in the shortest possible time.

What are postcards for?
The answer to this question is obvious. For a long time, postcards have been used to congratulate relatives and friends on the holidays. You can order postcards to congratulate your employees, partners or clients. All of them will be pleased to receive a card for the holiday with congratulations and wishes from your company. Thus, you remind yourself. Customers may want to use the services or products you offer on the eve of the holidays or on public holidays.
What postcards can you choose?
For making postcards, you can choose from several design options. The first, and the most budgetary, is the production of postcards according to a standard layout. Our designer will offer you several ready-made options to choose from, and you choose the one that suits you best. Then the necessary changes will be made to the layout (small, for example, changing the inscription).
The second option is personalized postcards. It will take more time to make them. Work will also cost more. Our designer will take into account all your requirements in his work. As a result, you will receive a unique product that meets all your wishes.
Production of postcards ready-made design take no more than 24 hours. However, if you want the company's specialists to develop an individual design for you, then it may take a little longer.
Of course, you can buy ready-made postcards and fill them out. But the postcards you like may not be in the right amount. In addition, they do not take into account any individual requirements. Most often, they do not provide a place for appeal (if there is text in the postcard). The text in a standard postcard is unified and does not contain information about your company. To fill postcards with text, you will have to spend extra time and money. Whereas, by ordering production from the Idea Print company, you will receive ready-made postcards with the desired text. It remains only to enter or type in the name of the person to whom the postcard is intended. In this case, a free space will be left under the name (if necessary).
The third option is to make postcards according to the template you provided. Perhaps you yourself know how to create a design, perhaps your company has a designer who designs printing and other products for the company in a single corporate style. In this case, you will not need to pay extra for the design of postcards. They will simply be printed according to your templates.
