Designing for White Ink

ALL WHITE INK OPTION (Easy Level)

  • This is the simplest way to print in white ink—no spot channels, no advanced software needed.

    • White Ink Only Prints your entire design (shapes, graphics) using white ink exclusively. You can use varying percentages of white—from light/tinted effects to 100% opaque—for creative control.
    • White Text We recommend text to be 100% black (100% K). Avoid very thin or small text.


    File Setup Requirements

    • Design your file using black ink only (100% black = 100% white ink on press).
    • Text should be 100% black (C=0, M=0, Y=0, K=100)
    • No spot colors or special channels required.
    • Submit as a standard CMYK PDF.
