Why is this the best method?
This is the
best method because, clear self-adhesive labels can easily be applied to
your existing business cards, without damaging or destroying any printed
information or artwork.
Braille
embossed labels can also be applied to all business cards regardless of
texture. So, whether your cards have
a matt, silky, satin, glossy smoothe or rough finish, our Braille overlays
will stick for years and the corners wont curl up.
In
addition, the labels will add protection to all your printed card designs
and text and make them waterproof.
The extra
thickness and strength means your business cards will last longer.
And
finally, because the materials we use are transparent and the Braille dots
have no colour,your text and graphics will remain clearly visible. Thus creating, unique and duel format
business cards.
How many different sizes of business cards
are there?
Well, there
are two average sizes in use for nearly all standard business cards. The first size is those which resemble a
credit card and these tend to measure roughly 85mm X 55mm and longer
thinner cards which measure 90mm X 50mm.
The second
size of business card is called a Gatefold card. This type of card is twice the size of
regular sized cards and when folded in half, contains four panels rather
than just the front and reverse.
Gatefold
cards are perfect for Brailling, because, as Braille is sized 30 font (or
around three times larger than normal sized print), you can place lots of
details in Braille on this type of card.
How much Braille can I fit on a card?
Well for
example, on one side of a single card, you can place any 3 of the following
pieces of information:
- Person’s
full name
- Business
name
- Office
phone number
- Mobile
telephone number
- Email
address
- Website
address
If you
wanted to put a postal address on your business cards as well, you can put
3 pieces of info on the front of your card and using a second label, you
can easily apply a postal address to the reverse of your card.
This is why
gatefold cards are perfect for applying information in Braille, because you
can place large sized labels inside or outside of your gatefold business
card and/or, even both!
If your
company or charity uses gatefold business cards, your biz card designer
made a great decision when choosing this type of card because they have put
your organisation in a prime position to communicate as much information as
possible through your business cards.
You can
obviously add any other information you may like to your labels and the
Braille on your labels will appear in four lines each containing 13
characters.
Braille can
be written in a shorthand format for all Braille readers. Contact us to discuss your requirements
and we can quickly establish how much of your print information will fit on
one label in Braille.
Can I Use These Labels For Other Purposes?
Yes of
course, you can have these labels Brailled and use the labels for applying
to anything you wish. Any products,
pills and medications, books and files, machines, telephones, CD covers,
DVD covers, anything you can think of and because they are completely see
through, you will be able to see any print information and graphics when
they are applied.
You can use
the labels for writing instructions, fire safety notices, menus and
providing all kinds of Braille information for visually impaired persons,
and of course, you can have the labels made to whatever size you wish, they
can be smaller or larger than a standard business card.
