Product Description for Foil Bookmarks | Metallic Foil Printing

Foil Bookmarks are compact promotional pieces trimmed to the A7 Strip bookmark format, approximately 148 x 52mm. They are useful for publishing, education, libraries, events, customer gifts and campaigns where a branded item can stay in use for longer than a conventional leaflet.

The current construction uses selected bookmark card with separate metallic foil layer with a metallic foil highlight finish. Full-colour artwork can be used for branding, illustrations, contact details and reading-related promotions, with one- or two-sided options depending on the selected finish.

The narrow format rewards simple composition. Keep small text legible, leave generous clearance at the ends and use the exact bookmark template rather than cropping an A7 layout to fit.

Supply print-ready artwork as a high-resolution PDF at 300dpi in CMYK (FOGRA39 where a profile is required). Embed all fonts or convert text to outlines/curves. Add 3mm bleed on every trimmed edge and extend backgrounds and images fully into the bleed. Keep important text, logos, QR codes and other critical content at least 3mm inside the finished trim. Crop marks are not required when the PDF is supplied at the correct trim size with bleed.

For foil, supply conventional CMYK print pages followed by separate effect-mask pages as required by the product template. Build the mask as solid black vector artwork, keep all effect areas completely inside the 3mm safe area, and do not run foil across folds or perforations because the finish can crack or flake. Keep the CMYK artwork and mask geometry aligned exactly.
