About Spot UV Business Cards: Spot UV business cards stand out  because the glossy varnish, UV, is applied just in limited areas of the business cards.

Does this product require special file preparation? When you order prints with spot UV, you must supply an additional file, that should only indicate where the spot UV is going to be applied.  There should be a file per side, where there is black (100% K), or nothing. No gradients, no shades. 

What is special about Spot UV?
There is a beautiful contrast between the substrate and the area where the UV varnish has been applied.
- There is a contrast in brightness
- The colors in the area where the varnish has been applied look more vibrant

When to use Spot UV:
A business card is a small piece of communication. When it has spot UV, from a communicatiosns point of view, you are calling attention towards certain areas of the card. In other words, you are "directing" your clients or prospects, to look specifically at certain areas.
So there are two reasons: one is purely aesthetic, and the other one is to drive attention.

Impact of Spot UV in the eyes of your prospects or clients:
They say first impressions are the most lasting. Business cards when done right can make that initial meeting most memorable. They are a physical record that your potential client will take with them to be reminded of you, your brand, and your message. Even in our digital age business cards are still an essential tool that helps remind someone who you are and what you have to offer. Simply swapping contact information digitally can seem impersonal and without forethought. Using a business card will allow you to maintain eye contact and engage in real conversation rather than having your head buried in your phone. Handing out a business card that is eye-catching and professional will also help guarantee that your card will stay in their wallet instead of being thrown on a pile in the desk drawer. Creating a unique and memorable business card will encourage someone to want to share it with others. This will put you in the minds of potential clients you haven’t even met!

File preparation for business cards with spot UV:
Besides the regular CMYK file with cut marks and bleed, there should be a second file. This other file should be a vector file that registers with the first one.
That file will have either blak 100% (K=100%) or K=0. No half tones, no other colors. 
Where the black areas are, UV will be applied.

Color Copies USA has been my preferred vendor of choice for my printing needs for over 10 years. As a graphic designer, I call on them often to print my funeral programs and various other materials. Sergio & Viv are ALWAYS attentive and responsive; they ALWAYS come through for me, even when I am in a time crunch and need a fast turnaround! I really appreciate that they are able to accommodate small projects as well as large print orders when needed. I highly recommend Color Copies USA!

Super Quick and Responsive. Very easy to work with, submitted our request for the items we needed and within 2 hours I had a detailed response of the cost. The most inexpensive around the Fort Lauderdale area, and both the signs and copies came out great.

My order just arrived. The copies look great and delivery was way faster than expected. A technician from Color Copies contacted me about clarity of the image right away and dealt with the problem very effectively. I highly recommend this company!
