What Makes Good Artwork for Foil Stamping?
To the left is shown a typical layout of a logo or perhaps a city seal. If it was developed in color from the beginning, the possibility of it not being appropriate for other uses is more likely to occur. Although, at first glance this logo appears to be a good candidate for foil stamping, a few things need to be changed to produce a good imprint. On the plus side, all the lines are at least 1 pt.;(2 pt. is better) and the artwork is simple without gradients,shadows and is not rendered in a pen and ink style with a multitude of fine lines. This is the standard for logos and seals destined for print also.
