Hardcovers can be embossed on front and spine. Embossing means pressing into the cover using intense, structure changing heat, not sticking, colour changing or filming. Embossings can be coloured gold, silver or black.
On the front two lines with the height of
9 mms and a maximum of
28 characters each (uppper case letters only) and three lines plus a footer with the height of
6 mms and a maximum of
36 characters each (normal type, apposition of upper case letters not possible) can be embossed.
Because of varying character widths, the number of characters is just a guiding value, the actual producibility can be tested at the
embossing configuration.
Spine embossing is produced single-line in
6 mms height with same options as those on the front. This embossing is available from
60 (80g-/100g-paper) resp.
50 (120g-paper) sheets on, otherwise the spine is not wide enough.
For the purpose of testing options and combinations in book embossing, a
hardcover configuration is provided.
