Bespoke letterpress printing
for busy professionals
There’s nothing that says luxury wedding design than letterpress — the texture of the paper, the elegance of the ink… needless to say we’re a fan! Not to mention the abundance of times outside of wedding invitations when letterpress printing makes a difference… business meetings, celebrations, or just because you want a little something special for your day-to-day. When you partner with Swiftly Scripted for your letterpress printing needs, you’re in good hands. With years of experience as a wedding invitation designer ourselves, we understand the needs of luxury clients from timelines to best practices, and help you deliver the perfect stationery.
How to Order Custom Letterpress Stationery
Design File Checklist
In order to have the best experience with letterpress printing, please ensure your design files are properly formatted. We also offer a formatting service for an additional fee.
- Artwork created in Adobe programs – InDesign or Illustrator
- 100% Black artwork (Register black or 100% K)
- All artwork must be vectorized
- All type must be outlined
- Show the full image on one page
- 1 colour per page for plates

- 0.3 stroke minimum width for all elements
- Pantone colours provided – not CMYK (Colours can look different in each colour system)
- Artwork should appear as you want the final print and be to final size
Ink Colours
Every colour is hand mixed using the Pantone solid uncoated swatch book. These colours can be dramatically different from how they look onscreen. Ideally a Pantone swatch book is highly suggested to match physical samples, or you can visit us in the studio to match ours.
Maximum Design Size
The maximum size for your artwork should be no more than approximately 6″ by 9″ for the best experience.
Order Minimums
There is no strict minimum, however more cost efficient to print in large quantities. I recommend starting at 100 for business cards and 50 for other projects.

Each custom letterpress printing project is quoted individually based on the quantity, paper size, paper type, number of ink colours, and other factors.
