How
to print this invitation
Let
us do it for you. When your invitation kit arrives
already printed, cut to size, and ready to assemble, half
your work is done. Call your helpers. Assembly is fun when
you make it a party. Printing costs extra, of course, but
well worth it for a number of reasons. More about
printing.
Do
it yourself. Our papers are not guaranteed to
go through every desktop printer. The paper for this invitation
is uneven, but most desktop printers can take it. Your printer driver
has to be set to "rough" or "card stock." Hand-feed
your pieces and use a straight-path printer (be sure your
printer has a door in the back so your pieces don't curl
around all the rollers). Our MicroSoft Word templates make
set-up for your typesetting very easy, but because of font
licensing restrictions, we do not send you fonts. If you
dislike all the fonts installed on your own computer,
see what strikes your fancy at MyFonts. Cutting: You receive
response card paper to print four on a sheet, then you
cut twice. The invitation paper comes two on a sheet, then
you
cut once.
Recommended Printer Types: Laser and Inkjet
Types of printers that have presented problems: Dedicated Photo Inkjets. Color
Lasers. We cannot specify models because the same model that works fine for
one customer may mess up for the next.
Commercial
Printing. Commercial printers won't take jobs using this paper, in general. If you want InviteSite's beautiful offset
or letterpress services, you're already set with our economical
and convenient options (above). If you have your heart
set on thermography, engraving
and foil stamping, we do not
yet
offer these methods.
As with do-it-yourself, we are not liable for any damage
done by your printing or copy service. |
On print-yourself orders we include an additional 10% of all the papers and envelopes you are going to print on. NOT 10% of the wrappers and the liners, just the printable papers. For example, if you order 100 invitations, we ship you 110 envelopes, etc. Called a 'printer's overage' - this is for any paper loss due to printing on a desktop computer. Commercial printers could possibly lose more, so let us advise you if you plan to take your job to a commercial printer. It's not a good idea to change the count of your final order because of the overage!
