PRODUCTION SPECIFICATIONSStandard & Bulk Run Bookmarks Specifications
For printing terms and production definitions, visit our Glossary.
The specifications below are built directly from the supplied estimator for Standard & Bulk Run Bookmarks. Grid options and calculator rows marked Yes under Show an Option are included in spreadsheet order, while quantity and pricing mechanics are excluded. Customer-facing terminology is standardized to Printing, Paper / Stock, Cut to Shape (Contour Cut), Hole Drilling, Shrink Wrapping, 2 Business Days, Upload Artwork Now, Provide Artwork Separately and Request Design Assistance without changing the underlying production choice. The approved Small Format Estimator is reused wherever an equivalent icon or illustration exists, including Printing, Paper / Stock, Lamination & Foil, Cut to Shape, Rounded Corners, Hole Drilling, Shrink Wrapping, supported Turnaround choices and Artwork. Custom illustrations are used only for bookmark-specific orientation, specialty surfaces and effects that are not available in the estimator. Options are consolidated only when the visible customer decision is genuinely the same.
If your project requires a bookmark size, stock, finish or production configuration outside the online estimator, request a Custom Quote.
Size & Orientation
Choose the exact finished bookmark size and artwork direction supported by the estimator. Horizontal and Vertical are illustrated separately because the same numeric size uses a different artwork orientation and filename dimensions depending on the selected direction.
