Technology (continued)
ON WATCHES:
Either an Opaque or Translucent technique may be used.
• The Opaque technique prints a white underlay behind your image or text.
• The Translucent technique prints your image or text without a white underlay.
Please specify Opaque or Translucent on your purchase order. To review proof information, please see General Information on page 779.
Phantom or Ghost Imprints
Phantom or ghost imprints are available at no extra charge. A 10% screen is usually recommended if you intend to write over the phantom imprint. As they are very light, text and phone numbers are not recommended as phantoms. Large logos that cover most of the space at the center of the pad look best.
General Information applicable to the products featured on pages 381–456.
Rulers
Rulers are primarily used for advertising, not as a precision instrument.
Sticky Note®
IMPRINTS
Color Matching
Most BIC ® Sticky Note® products are printed with 4-color process inks as opposed to spot color inks. 4-color process allows you to print as many different colors as you want for one price. All non-standard imprint colors will be converted to the closest 4-color process match.A perfect match cannot be guaranteed.The BIC® StickyNote® ColorWheel,showcasingthemultitudeofBIC® StickyNote® standard imprint colors, can be found on page 790.
The sides of the Value Non-Adhesive Cubes on pages 400–401 are printed in spot colors. Standard imprint colors can be found on page 777. If a sheet imprint is requested, the sheets will be printed with 4-color process. This may cause a color difference between the sides and the sheet.
When requesting a non-standard imprint color, please provide the color number or a color sample (swatch or photograph). When color is critical, we recommend a color proof. Color paper proofs may not be an exact match to final product. Please see page 777 for more details on submitting artwork for non-standard imprint colors. RGB files will be converted to 4-color process (CMYK), which may result in color shifts.
Minimum Line Weights & Type Sizes
Text can be as small as 6-point type on notepad and cube sheets. Anything smaller will not be legible. Lines must be at least .5 point thick ( ). On cube sides, the minimum text size is 8 point and the minimum text size for reverse text is 10 point. On beveled notepads, the minimum text size is 12 point along the beveled edge imprint area.
Keeping your logo and text to the top and bottom allows for space to write!
