Raised FinishRaised Thermography Front OnlyThermography creates a visibly raised, tactile treatment on the front of the card, giving names, logos and selected printed details a traditional premium appearance.Artwork SetupRaised Thermography is specified for the front only. The spreadsheet does not call for a separate thermography mask file, so prepare the print artwork clearly and use Additional Instructions if specific front-side elements must receive special production attention. Raised Printing Coverage GuidanceLight skin tones, light colors, and low screen percentages will have a negative impact on the raised appearance of your product. For best raised printing results, we recommend that the Total Area Coverage (TAC) be 150% or higher. TAC is the total of the CMYK values of a color. For example, a light blue with CMYK 89, 10, 0, 0 has a TAC of 99%. This color will not produce a strong raised appearance because there is not enough ink coverage to hold the thermography powder.
