Here are some tips and tricks on how you can incorporate your ideas, not just from artwork designing but also to embossing, tipping, adding a barcode and also thermal printing.
Artwork Designing
Some owners of a particular company would want to incorporate their own designs on the ID card that they would want to represent their company but sometimes they do not know what file format of the design they can use. Some of the file formats that are available are the following: .cdr for CorelDraw; .jpg, .psd, .bmp .tif, for Photoshop; ai for Illustrator and .eps for Freehand. You have to ensure that all of these graphic references created with the use of the CMYK Color Gamut and not the RGB because this would produce an adverse reaction on the accurate reproduction of colors. This applies to both for printing and proofing purposes.
As for the card layout, its size must be 86 x 54mm with 1mm of wrap around. If you would like to require a signature panel, the position & size must also be indicated where you would like to place it.
