Specifications that must be followed in the membership card manufacturing industry

2013-04-21 · Specifications that must be followed in the membership card manufacturing industry

    Every industry has its own rules and standards; having no rules is not a good aspectMembership card productionThe same logic applies in this industry. Below are the specifications and rules for making membership cards that I have listed. If you don't follow these rules and standards, then sorry, we can't make your membership cards. I've broken them down into more than ten points below, so you'll understand once you take a look.

    1. The correct draft is a Coreldraw file, and after special effects have been converted to bitmaps, text, symbols, and patterns must be converted to curves. 

    2. Inner frame dimensions: 85.5mm * 54mm, outer frame dimensions: 88.5mm * 56mm, card fillets at 12 degrees. Please specify the size for special sizes.
    3. Save CorelDraw as CDR format. If it is version 10.0 or above, it is recommended to convert the curve and save it as version 9.0. (When using CorelDraw effects, please convert graphics to bitmaps; bitmap resolution 300dpi.)
    4. To prevent cutting into the text or other content on the card, place the text and other content within 4mm of the cutting line.
    5. Small convex code is font size 12, large convex code is font size 18, can be represented in bold. Small and large convex codes can contain spaces up to 17 bits. Embossed codes can be gold-foiled or other gold and silver types, and special requests can be personalized with embossed designs.
    6. The margin between the protruding code and the card must be greater than 5mm; the distance between the magnetic stripe and the inner frame (top and bottom) of the card should be 4mm; the magnetic stripe width should be 12mm.
    7. Magnetic stripe card: Do not press the pronged code on the back of the magnetic card, or the magnetic stripe will not be susceptible.
    8. The raised code design should not press onto the barcode on the back, otherwise the barcode data cannot be read. Leave empty space on the barcode card according to the barcode model provided by the customer.
    9. Color gradation: The ideal stage range is 18%-85%. If the highlights are below 18% or the dark tones are above 85%, the color gradient is poor.
    10. Please set all file color modes to C.M.Y.K mode.
    11. The line must not be less than 0.076mm; otherwise, the print will not be visible. The line must be set to no less than 0.076mm.
    12. The background pattern or background color should not be set below 10% to avoid being displayed when printing.
    13. Before placing an order, the following items should be noted in the manuscript:
    A. Specify how many cards are produced in total, indicate where the card number starts and any special requirements. Is the card number small convex code, large convex code, flat code, or spray code? Does the card number need to be stamped in gold, silver, or without color? How many signature strips are on the back? Should the card number or suffix-ending numbers be removed when they appear in "4" or "7"?
    B. If the front has patterns or text that require gold or silver stamping, this should also be emphasized.
    C. If there are special manufacturing processes, they should be detailed in the manuscript for the order.
    14. Because the card printing media is different, the printed product will have some color difference compared to the color display or printed color drafts on the computer.
    15. Coloring must be done according to CMYK color books, computer screen colors, and printer printing colors; it cannot be used as printing color.
