Can I add any coatings to my magnet postcards?

Magnet postcards are printed with a raised UV ink, which results in a textured feel. The non-magnet side of the postcard features Soft Touch laminate, which provides a velvety-smooth feel. Learn more: Soft Touch Laminate, Raised UV Printing

Are there any specifications I should follow on my print-ready file?

Yes. There are two things you should know:

  • Make sure you submit two files: one for your postcard and one for your magnet.
  • Magnets could shift 0.125″ during application, so make sure your text or imagery has a safe margin of at least 0.125″.
