How do I print a double sided Invitation

Post by shiftpicker »

Hi there,

I'm looking to print double sided invites but I'm having trouble working out how to do it. I have no problem with screen printing itself, im just trying to workout how I would line each side up so that when I go to cut them up on a guillotine they all line up properly...Can anyone help? thanks!

Get yourself some clear substrate cut to the same size as your invitation substrate. Print your first surface on both substrates. Then register you second color second surface to your clear sustrate and you will be in registration on your invitation stock. That is if you hold good registration.

Incorporate some kind of registration mark or marks on your art in the same position for both sides. After you've got your press set up to print the first side, strike off one print with the marks, then tape off the marks and print the rest of the sheets. Use the first print with the marks to set up the second side that has matching marks, tape them off and finish the job.
