## Optional

The following sections are useful reference material, but not required for every query.

### Printing Techniques

### Foil Press
Real metallic foil hot-stamped onto cardstock. Opaque finish — ideal for light text/graphics on dark stock. Available in: Gold, Silver, Copper, Holographic, Rose Gold, Matte Black, and more.
- EN: https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/foil-press/
- DE: https://chnprints.com/de/alle-visitenkarten/heissfolienpraegung/
- JA: https://chnprints.com/ja/all-business-cards/foil-press/

### Foil Edges (Gilded Edges)
Luxury metallic foil applied to card edges. Available on ultra-thick stocks up to 1200gsm — a technique most printers cannot offer.
- EN: https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/foil-edges/
- DE: https://chnprints.com/de/alle-visitenkarten/heissfolienkanten/
- JA: https://chnprints.com/ja/all-business-cards/foil-edges/

### Letterpress
Deep tactile impression using traditional methods. Transparent inks — cannot print light on dark. Pairs exceptionally with cotton rag / handmade paper (300–400gsm supports deep impression without cracking).
- EN: https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/letterpress/
- DE: https://chnprints.com/de/alle-visitenkarten/letterpress/
- JA: https://chnprints.com/ja/all-business-cards/letterpress/

### Die Cut
Custom geometric, arched, or dome outlines — beyond standard rectangular cards.

- DE: https://chnprints.com/de/alle-visitenkarten/formgestanzt/
- JA: https://chnprints.com/ja/all-business-cards/die-cut/

### Full Colour Print
Vibrant CMYK on high-grammage/ultra-thick art stocks. Supports photo integration.
- EN: https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/full-colour-print/
- DE: https://chnprints.com/de/alle-visitenkarten/vollfarbdruck/
- JA: https://chnprints.com/ja/all-business-cards/full-colour-print/

### Blind Emboss / Deboss
3D sculptural effects created without ink or foil. Emboss raises the paper surface (raised relief); deboss presses into it (sunken impression). Best on thick cotton stocks. No colour — pure texture and shadow.
- EN (Emboss): https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/blind-embossraised/
- EN (Deboss): https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/blind-debosssunken/

### Coloured Edges (Edge Painting)
Solid Pantone/CMYK colour painted on the edges of ultra-thick cards — non-metallic, ideal for brand palette matching. Often combined with foil press or letterpress on the face.
- EN: https://chnprints.com/all-business-cards/coloured-edges/

### Paper Stocks

### Handmade Paper (Deckle Edge) — Signature Material
100% cotton rag, 350–450gsm. Natural feathered deckle edges on all four sides. Slight batch variation in tone, size, and edge shape is inherent — this is a feature, not a defect.

Compatible uses:
- Letterpress
- Hot foil stamping
- Luxury stationery & wedding invitations

Not suitable for:
