I thought it was strange no-one supplied these, seemed like an obvious thing to do. Thanks for the link. Might have a go with these, useful for short run work.

Well it appears Lithograph would be the ideal route for my cards but at 5 times the price of digital it's a much bigger investment! A printer is running a few colour tests on digital for me to see if we can get a match.

Anyone know what weight the MegaUK cards are? I assume credit card but maybe thinner. I wonder if they're double sided? £7 delivery on 100 cards is very high...if I want it to my door it's £25! You also have to order over £30 worth of stuff! Deary me.

Hi Justin, If your worried about a certain colour reproduction i'd be surprised if digital is the way to go, especially with the drop in quality.

Yeah, I'll probably just get litho done and get it right. I have a close cmyk match that works when I print myself, normal and subli....it just doesn't work for large format!

I received a surprise package in the post y/day. A run of business cards form the company Andrew recommended to me, Scubaprint.

I was only expecting them to run a few tests to try and get a good colour match! The colour they have produced digitally is perfect for my cards. I'd expected to have to go Litho to achieve this so I'm seriously impressed.

I'd recommend anyone looking at getting business cards etc. printed take a look at their website www.scubaprint.com. Prices are keen and my first impression of the product and service couldn't be better.
