Raised Thermography Business Cards
Thermography, or raised letter printing is a process that combines offset printing ink which is applied to the cards or paper with a powdered resin which is sprayed on the sheet or card as it comes out of the press. The resin mixes with the ink only and then the extra resin is removed from the card or sheet surface. The cards then move straight into a special oven to bake so that the resin mixed ink rises to give the print a raised, textured, and glossy effect.
One way to determine whether thermography is right for a print job is to decide whether the project would call for a glossy look, which thermography creates on the actual printing only. Some clients want the glossy letter look that you can feel, while other clients want what looks like a flat matte-finish.
