We print our cards on substantial 450gsm silk stock - significantly thicker than the standard cards found online. You can then choose your finish:

  • Matt Lamination: For a smooth, sophisticated look.

  • Gloss Lamination: For vibrant colours and high impact.

  • Soft Touch: For a luxurious, tactile feel.

Unlike automated web-to-print sites, we pride ourselves on our service. A member of our team personally reviews your file before it goes to press to ensure everything is correct, and we manage the entire process from file checking through to printing and dispatch.

All prices include free delivery.

To place an order, simply select your options, pay online, and you'll be prompted to upload your design (see details in next tab).

If you are order cards for lots of people, you can do this by selecting the number of names/designs. Please note that the quantities are per design, so if you order 250 cards of 2 designs, you'll receive 500 cards in total. 

We don't print anything automatically. We'll check everything, and email you a PDF proof for you to approve before we start. This shows the final layout as it would print, and allows you to check for any mistakes. 

Once you approve your PDF proof, we'll get started and email you once we've dispatched your order. The turnaround is 3-5 working days. 

Preparing your file

The ideal: a press-ready PDF The best thing you can send us is a PDF exported at 'Press Quality' (or 'High Quality Print') settings, set up with 3mm bleed and cropmarks. Bleed means your design extends slightly beyond the cut edge, so there are no white borders after trimming.

Not sure how to do this?  Canva makes it straightforward — export as PDF Print and tick the 'Crop marks and bleed' box. For Adobe InDesign or Illustrator, use File → Export → PDF (Print) and choose the Press Quality preset. Our full artwork guide is at  copycentre.com/artwork.

For professional designers

  • Colour mode: CMYK 
  • Bleed: 3mm all sides
  • Safe zone: keep important text and logos 4mm inside the trim edge
  • Fonts: Please don't use a smaller size than 8
  • File format: PDF/X-1a or PDF/X-4 preferred; PDF (Press Quality) also accepted

We can accept other file type (JPEG, TIFF, PNG, Word, PowerPoint, and Publisher) but these are not suitable for edge to edge printing, so must have a white background only. 

Remember, we don't print anything automatically and we will always check your file and email you a PDF proof first before we start. 

 

If you don't have a design:

  • Canva is the quickest and easiest way to make a design, with thousands of free templates. Please download a 'PDF for print' with cropmarks and not flattenned, for the best results. 
  • We can design your card if you select the option. Simply tell us your requirements, with any text, logos and details that you would like included, and we'll make up a custom design and send you a PDF proof to approve. Please note that design takes a minimum of 1 working day.

Specifications

  • Business cards are printed full colour as standard, and the prices are the same if printed single or double sided. 
  • 450gsm is a thick silk card. Most business cards are printed on 300-400gsm.
  • Lamination is a plastic finish that protects the cards and makes them tactile and durable. We always laminate both sides of the card.
