DCL Media & Print

The Standard Business card may be the most generic of all collateral materials, but you won’t find a reputable businessperson without one.  This common 3.5” x 2” business card can speak volumes about you, your company or employer and your product.  A high-quality Standard Business card helps create a good first impression and can be the item that catches the attention of the buyer and helps you get closer to the sale.  

The artwork with bleeds for the standard business card should be 3.75” x 2.25”.  Set up your artwork and send up a Print Ready PDF with fonts outlined and images embedded.

We offer multiple paper options for our standard business cards:

• 14 pt. Gloss - a sturdy stock with a moderate gloss finish
• 16 pt. Matte – a thicker, sturdier stock, with a matte finish as opposed to a gloss finish
• 110 lb. Matte – this is a premium stock with a fine matte finish.  It is slightly lighter than the 14 pt. stock
• 14 pt. Uncoated – Neither a matte finish nor a gloss finish, this stock has no coating and can be easily written on with a pen
• 16 pt.  Uncoated – a thicker stock, with neither a matte nor gloss finish, this stock offers a bit more substance than a 14 pt. stock and offers good print quality and can be easily written on with a pen
• 32 pt. Uncoated – this is a sturdy stock, thicker than the rest.  Uncoated, it can be easily written on with a pen and has a great feel when handing to a prospect or client.
• 90 lb. Uncoated White Linen – this stock is equivalent to about a 12 pt. paper stock, both elegant and dramatic.
