Not every printing company is providing full color letterheads with bleed. We are proud to be one of the best letterhead printers in Las Vegas and entire United States. The qualities we deliver in letterheads are world class and they can be used in laser and inkjet printer without any problem. This is a very serious issue that you may already deal with it. If your previous printing company printed the letterhead on a wrong paper with a wrong ink and wrong printing machine it will cause you problem when you run the letterhead trough your office inkjet or laser printer. You will notice that what ever is on your letterhead is getting copied on your letterhead multiple time after running it trough your printer. The process we are using to print the letter heads will guarantee that there won’t be any problem using them in any kind of office printer.
The paper used at HikePrint for letterheads is 70lb offset opaque smooth white paper.
Please note that heavy inks are not recommended for letterheads.
The available sizes for letter heads are:
- 8.5×14
- 8.5×11
We recommend you not use colors with high color density. By this we mean dark colors (black, purple, blue, brown, etc). Dark colors tend to get soaked into the paper if their color values are too high. For best results, use light colors.
When you are preparing your artwork please make sure
- The size of the artwork is right (ex: 8.5”x11”)
- It includes bleed (ex: 8.625”x11.125”)
- It is designed in CMYK mode
- It has 300-350 dpi resolution
- It is in right format: TIF, TIFF, JPG, EPS, PNG, AI, PSD, and PDF
The required bleed for letterhead is 0.125” for each dimension or 0.0625” bleed on all four sides. For example an 8.5×11 letterhead with the full bleed should be 8.625”x11.125”.
The letterheads can be printed two sided and full bleed but remember to use light colors for a better quality.
