Please set up these special printing elements as a separate layer in your files. If using Photoshop, do not flatten this artwork into the CMYK background of your file.
For foil stamping, embossing, or a spot varnish in your design, please indicate this in the name field of the separate layer these elements appear on. The elements should be vector or 1-color raster (bitmap, psd with transparent background) and set to “overprint” in the layout program.
A custom spot color swatch should be assigned to the element and the swatch should be named as the type of detail it represents (ie: “Deboss”, “Emboss”, “Silver Foil”, “Spot Matte Varnish”).
