Stationery

Your stationery’s look can be divided into three elements: Size, Colour and Stock. Additionally, you can add some optional extras (as detailed below) and customised choices of one of the elements above.

CHOOSE YOUR SIZE

When we talk about stationery’s size, we are describing the size of the paper that it will be printed on. It is an important aspect to consider when designing your stationery. The size of pages you decide to use will have an impact on how much room you have to work with.

A bigger page gives you more space to work with and allows you to be creative but it can also be more expensive. Opting for a smaller page size can help you save money but can also reduce the amount of space you have to get your message across. Smaller page sizes can, however, lend themselves to making an impact and can work particularly well in providing support information for products

A4 Letterheads: A4 paper size is now used in nearly every country apart from the USA and Canada. A4 is the most common standard business letter size used in English speaking countries. A4 is the most popular choice worldwide.

DL: With Compliments slips. Tall, slim and great for compliments slips. DL measures 99mm x 210mm – that’s exactly one-third of A4. DL stands for ‘dimension lengthwise’ and is the standard size of personal envelopes.

A2: Desk Pads

A4, A5 and A6 Sized note pads

CHOOSE YOUR COLOUR

We can print your stationery in full colour or in greyscale or black and white. It all depends on how you want it to look, what you need to convey and, of course, your budget.

Full Colour One or Black and White one side

Using colour makes your stationery stand out, and experts say that certain colours tell your customer something about you and can have an impact on them. Think about what reaction you want your stationery to have. Do you want your readers to feel enthused, restful, or appreciated?

Black and White

We also offer stationery in black and white or grey scale (a range of shades of grey with no colour).

CHOOSE YOUR STOCK

In printing ‘stock’ means the type of paper you would like to use for your stationery. You might think this is not that important, but stop a moment to consider that these documents are going to be used – passed around and perhaps hung or pinned on walls . . . so it is important how they feel and last.

So for Letterheads and With Compliments Slips, this means that choosing the right paper can make the world of difference when it comes to first impressions. We offer choices between:

• 80gsm, 90gsm, 100gsm and 120gsm stock
• Other stock options also available on request
• Bond stock not suitable for digital stationery items, as ink transfer may occur when used on laser printers

Now you’ve got the basic printing decisions made you are ready to go ahead and add the header artwork (if any) and then order your stationery (Letterheads and With Comps Slips)!
