Pantone colours are specific shades that can be easily matched or replicated. When you need an exact colour printed, it is best to use Pantone colours. Pantone is able to produce shades that CMYK is unable to produce, such as metallic and fluorescent colours.

What are the differences between Pantone and CMYK printing?

The main difference between CMYK and Pantone printing is the level of accuracy. The Pantone process is more consistent and it is able to produce colours closer in shade to the ones seen on the screen. Pantone printing may be more precise, sharp and consistent, however it tends to be more costly than CMYK printing.

If your artwork is in Pantone colour, and you print it in CMYK format, the colours being printed might come out differently from your artwork

Products we print with Pantone colours are:
Envelopes, Letterheads, NCR invoice book

]]> CMYK + White Ink Printing Tutorial https://www.thecopyboy.com/2019/11/20/cmyk-white-ink-printing-tutorial/ Wed, 20 Nov 2019 09:20:03 +0000 https://www.thecopyboy.com/?p=22655 CMYK in general do not print white ink, hence why we have the option of CMYK + White Ink Printing. This option is being made for products like our UV Frosted Translucent Business card and our Plastic File Folders. If you have a white background on your artwork and choose CMYK instead of CMYK + White Ink, the white colour background will not be printed to your product.

How are your artworks made?

For the tutorial, Art board 1 will represent the CMYK print, Art board 2 will represent the White Ink print.

CMYK + Full White Backing 

With full White Backing, your design will be separated into 2 different art boards. One will be for the CMYK and the other one will be for the White Ink.

For your artwork, the CMYK colours will be on Art Board 1. For Art Board 2, it will be in 100% K (black) on the entire Art Board.

For the final print product, Full White Backing will be printed on your cards, and no area will be transparent. Printed colours will be solid due to White Backing.

 

CMYK + No White Backing

When there is no White Backing, there will be 1 art board for the CMYK.

For your artwork, the CMYK colours will be shown on your art board

For the final product, with no White Backing, the cards will be transparent(on the white part of your CMYK art board)/ translucent. Printed colour will be translucent without any White Backing

CMYK + Spot White Backing 

With full white backing, your design will be separated into 2 different art boards. One will be for the CMYK and the other one will be for the White Ink.

For your artwork, the CMYK colours will be on Art Board 1. For Art Board 2, it will be in 100% K (black) on the spots you will like your White Backings to be.

For the final product, White Ink will be printed on your cards on the areas where you want your White Backing to be. If there is White Backing on your printed colours, the printed colours will be solid. Areas without White Backing will be transparent/translucent.
