Taste of Ink offers a variety of paper stocks including both coated and uncoated options. Uncoated stocks have a more textured feel and are typically easier to write on. Our letterpress Cotton and Suede stocks are uncoated and offer a high-end luxury feel.
More commonly used for full color printing, coated stocks are finished with a smooth lamination. Coated stock options include Silk, Soft Touch and Glossy and offer a clean professional feel.
Taste of Ink offers two types of premium printing; Letterpress and Full Color.
Letterpress is an artisan process that derives its name from the three dimensional press plates that are custom made and pressed into the stock. Done with custom mixed spot colors and premium foils, the result is a beautiful luxury product that features both precision printing and luxury feel with a debossed impression into the paper stock.
Full color printing (also known as CMYK process printing) is done on hi-tech four color presses offering vibrant color and rich detail. Full color printing can be done on a variety of high quality stocks with a wide range of finishing options and upgrades. Consult with one of our print + design experts to explore what’s possible!
Yes – Pantone (PMS) colors are available on most stock options. Additional cost may apply, please consult with one of our print + design experts for details.
Digital printing is a process where ink is applied to paper with small ink jets similar to the printing process used by small desktop printers. Offset printing is a process using large format presses with laser etched ink rollers.
For projects like folded business cards or folded note cards there are typically two sizes referred to – ‘Flat’ Size and ‘Finished’ (of Folded) Size. Flat size refers to the overall dimensions of the piece when laid flat and unfolded. Finished size refers to the final dimensions when the piece is folded or closed. For example an A7 note card has a ‘Finished’ size of 5” x 7” and fits into an envelope sized at 5.25” x 7.25”. The ‘Flat’ size of an A7 note card when opened is 10” x 7”.
Taste of Ink offers a variety of stock options in both Uncoated and Coated finishes in a range of thicknesses. Thickness of paper stock is measured by point size (abbreviated as ‘.pt’). Our selection ranges from premium 16pt. to ultra thick 48pt. depending on the specific stock. Average business cards are typically 12-14pt thick while Taste of Ink offers premium thickness luxury stock options.
Uncoated stocks include Cotton, Suede and Premium Uncoated while Coated Stocks include Silk, Soft Touch and Plastic.
Spot colors offer the most accuracy in printing due to being pre-mixed according to specific formulas. Full color printing can show a color shift of up to 7% due to a wide variety of variables that are inherently part of the process. We always strive for the best color accuracy and orders that reflect a larger shift than industry standards are reprinted at no additional charge.

Our proofing department will review your files and prepare a digital proof for you to review and approve. Concerns with printability will be flagged with warning notations. Please double check all spelling and accuracy of information as final approval of proof your is acknowledgement that everything is correct.
For full color printing all color must be set to CMYK color mode. Files submitted in RGB will be converted to CMYK for print. Some color shift may occur during conversion and is unavoidable.
For spot color printing colors the requested PMS (Pantone) color must be clearly noted.
Full color printing is done at 300 dpi. Higher resolution files will not yield higher quality results, however, lower resolution files may show a loss of sharpness and quality.
It is not necessary to include proofs or samples with your final artwork but for more complicated projects digital mock-ups or examples can be helpful to ensure proper set up for printing.
Yes, layered or multiple page files that include both front and back artwork as well as separate files can be submitted. Please clearly label your files to ensure that they are properly interpreted.
