Press Proof
Press Proofs are the most accurate type of proofing available, as they are printed using the same production facilities, materials, and printing processes that will be used for the final production run. These 2D printouts of your artwork are printed in both CMYK and Pantone colors, and they are an excellent way to ensure that your packaging design looks exactly as you intended.
What's Included
Here's what's included in a Press Proof:
- Custom print in CMYK and/or Pantone
- Printed on the same material used in production
- Finishes (e.g. matte, glossy)
- Add-ons* (e.g. foil stamping, embossing)
*Add-ons can be included on your Press Proof at an additional cost.
