Branding – from design to print preparation
SilkPLM enables the creation of printed item templates that identify the product by price, size, or EAN number and automatically fill them with data.
Our automation saves a lot of time and reduces the risk of errors on prints, thereby also reducing the chance of inadvertently misleading
the customer.
What materials can be prepared in this way?
Different types of branding elements can be added to each product, such as:
- ready-made tags and hangtags or just stickers with the EAN number and price,
- stickers for boxes, directly on the product,
- care labels,
- and other printed materials requiring product identification such as certificates or warranty cards.
A single .indd template can be used repeatedly to identify multiple products.
What exactly does it involve?
Based on the layout provided by you, our graphic designers prepare a template in Adobe InDesign.
At the appropriate stage of the process, the system automatically fills it with data regarding the specific model, its dimensions, necessary technical and color details. This way, from one layout, a complete catalog of PDF files ready for printing is created.
It’s also possible for your graphic designer to independently prepare the .indd file and provide it to us. However, it’s important to remember that the template ready to be filled with data must comply with our guidelines regarding how data is presented by the SilkPLM system.
While our assistance saves you time and effort, if you choose the self-service option, we will provide you with guidelines on how to prepare such a template.
What do we need to prepare a template for you?
- We need a PDF file with the template layout and all dimensions, font types, and sizes applied to it.
- The logo, if it is to be included on the respective element.
- A list of data that should be included on the prepared print template.
- Design guidelines, if you also expect assistance in creating the layout, which is also possible.
