What Is Digital Printing?

Digital printing is a versatile printing method that transfers a digital file directly to paper or another printable material. Unlike traditional offset printing, digital printing does not require printing plates, making it well suited for short runs, customized projects, variable quantities, and projects with quick turnaround requirements.

Digital printing is an excellent choice when you want professional-quality printing without committing to a large quantity.

Our printing team can help you determine whether digital printing is the right process for your project or whether another technique, such as letterpress, foil stamping, embossing, thermography, or white ink printing, would produce the result you are looking for.

Digital Printing on Specialty Paper

The Paper Matters

One of the advantages of working with City Papery is that your printing project does not have to start with ordinary printer paper.

Our store offers a selection of premium papers in different colors, weights, textures, and finishes. This allows you to select the paper first and then determine the best printing method for your project.

For example, City Papery carries papers ranging from lightweight 90 gsm stock to heavier 350 gsm cover-weight papers.

Our team can help you consider:

  • Paper color

  • Paper weight

  • Texture

  • Finish

  • Size

  • Print coverage

  • Single-sided or double-sided printing

  • Folding and finishing requirements

  • Compatibility with the desired printing process

  • Duplexing

If you are unsure which paper is right for your project, we encourage you to visit our store and see and feel the papers in person.


Digital Printing vs. Other Printing Techniques

Not every project should be printed the same way.

Digital printing is often a great choice for projects that require flexibility, customization, shorter quantities, or a relatively quick production process.

For projects requiring a more distinctive or tactile appearance, City Papery also offers other printing and finishing techniques.

Digital Printing

Versatile, professional printing for a wide variety of personal and business projects.

Letterpress

A traditional printing technique that creates a distinctive impression and tactile quality.

Foil Stamping

Adds metallic or specialty foil details to printed pieces.

White Ink Printing

Allows white printing on darker or colored papers for a distinctive look.

Embossing

Creates a raised design or lettering for added dimension.

Thermography

Creates a raised printed effect with a distinctive finish.

Our printing department can help you compare these options and select the technique that best fits your paper, design, budget, quantity, and desired result.


Digital Printing for Weddings & Special Events

Wedding invitations and event stationery often require more than simply printing a design.

The paper, envelope, color, typography, and finishing details all work together to create the final presentation.

City Papery can help with digitally printed:

  • Wedding invitations

  • Save-the-date cards

  • RSVP cards

  • Wedding menus

  • Programs

  • Place cards

  • Escort cards

  • Table numbers

  • Event announcements

  • Matching stationery and envelopes

For projects that require additional impact, digital printing can also be combined with specialty papers and finishing techniques such as foil stamping, embossing, or other processes.


Digital Printing for Businesses

Professional printing can help establish a consistent visual identity for your business.

Whether you need a small quantity for a special presentation or printed materials for an ongoing business need, we can help you select appropriate paper and printing options.

Common business projects include:

  • Business cards

  • Letterhead

  • Envelopes

  • Corporate stationery

  • Postcards

  • Flyers

  • Marketing materials

  • Presentation materials

  • Branded announcements

  • Specialty printed pieces

For businesses that care about paper quality as much as the printed design, City Papery provides the advantage of combining a specialty paper store with a professional printing department.


Have Your Own Design?

Absolutely.

If you already have a completed design, our printing team can help review your project and determine the appropriate paper and printing specifications.

For the best results, print-ready artwork should generally be supplied as a high-resolution PDF with the appropriate bleed and trim marks when required. City Papery also provides guidance on preparing files for professional printing.

If you are not sure whether your file is ready to print, contact our printing department before submitting your final artwork.
