Beverage, luncheon or guest towel?

Match the format to your table setting, then choose from the size and ply combinations shown for your print process. These photos illustrate the formats; choose your paper color separately.

Paper color and imprint color are separate choices

Napkin color is the paper background. Ink or foil color describes the printed design. Paper color options are separate from ink or foil colors; custom PMS paper colors are not offered.

Choose the design's ink or foil

For single-color printing, plan the design in one ink color. You can specify an ink color by name or PMS reference; compare full-color printing if the artwork needs multiple colors.

For full-color printing, your artwork supplies the printed colors, so there is no separate ink-color choice. Review lettering and small details at the intended print size.

For hot foil stamping, choose Bright Silver, Bright Gold, Purple, Kelly Green, Red, Black foil.

Review artwork orientation

Square napkins offer Square or Diagonal print orientation. The guest towel prints upright. Review lettering and small details at the intended print size.

Prepare your artwork and event requirements

Gather your artwork, intended quantity and required-in-hand date. Confirm the available options, proof timing and delivery before committing to an event plan.
