Engraving/Monogramming Styles and Information
Engraving & Personalization Information
All gifts can be personalized with any of the following information: Names, Initials, Dates, etc. We will use provided date formats or (if necessary) use our professional judgment for adjustments. If you don’t choose a font, the default font is the font used on the sample image online. Honestly though, changing fonts isn’t recommended because the workers have spent hours testing which fonts work best on a product. Additionally, if you do request a font change, please remember fancy and thin cursive fonts do not engrave well on glass or soft materials like felt.
Guidelines for Personalization:
1. Please enter and review your personalization carefully.
2. Enter personalizations on form as you would like them to appear with capital letters, lowercase letters, numbers, punctuation, and characters such as { &, @, #, * }. If you type in all capital letters or all lower case letters that is how you want the personalization to appear.
3. If you do not choose a graphic, by default, the graphic shown in the picture will be used or we will leave the graphic off completely, it is up to us. Please be specific. If you do not want a graphic, you must state so.
4. Initials entered like this “ABC” will be printed as such. Initial entered like this “aBc” will be printed in all capitals, but it’s understood the B should be larger than the “a” and the “c” like a traditional monogram.
5. Oval cufflinks will be engraved as follows: First Name Initial, Last Name Initial, Middle Name Initial, with the last name initial being in the middle and larger than the others. This is Traditional/Classic monogramming.
6. Rectangular cufflinks will be engraved as follows: First Name Initial, Middle Name Initial, Last Name Initial. This is Straight monogramming.
Most gifts can accommodate multiple lines of engraving. We do not have a character limit, however character size and product size will determine how many characters can be engraved.
Graphics & Photos
All graphics must be submitted in black & white, high resolution, jpeg or PDF format, or otherwise engrave-ready. We do not accept photos. Rule of thumb, if you can photocopy your graphic, in black ink only, and still make out the image very clearly, then it’s probably engrave-ready. However, if you make a photocopy and the edges are not clear or because the graphic (perhaps a logo) was multi-color and things just look wrong in all black, then your graphic is not engrave-ready, in which case, we will charge a nominal fee to correct.
Graphics must be submitted with the order. There is a setup fee of $9.99.
