1. This is screen printing (much like printing on a t-shirt EXCEPT this t-shirt is a mirror). Therefore images with a lot of dots will not look good. Stay with text and basic logos as you are printing on a mirror. Screens denser than 80% may go solid; screens at or below 20% may go blank or may break up. Colour printed on a mirror will not match ink on paper.
2. You can use 2 Pantone(r) (PMS) colors, at no extra charge, directly on the disc. We can print more than two PMS colors and can even print on discs in 4-color process, but there are additional charges. Standard Type size is minimum 5 pts. Reversed Knockout Type is minimum 6 pts. |

EXTENDED PRINTING AREA
(or any portion of it) can used whenever a solid colour is printed as a background, or if the contrast difference is not a factor. If the background colour choice is of a translucent nature, the division between reflective and non-relective can be noticeable. In these cases, it is best to use the Standard Printing area instead, or print down to the 39mm mark only. |

|
STANDARD PRINTING AREA
is used whenever the CD's own reflecive coating is to be used as the background color, The center portion of the disc up to 39mm is not relective, and will give poor contrast. In addition, although the Indentification Band area between 39 to 46 mm is relective, it contains etched characters which create a non-uniform background for the printed artwork. |
