- More Info:
- Use contrasting colors for admission details and any numbers included in your artwork so staff can read them easily at check-in. Variable numbering and perforation are not selectable options for this product.
- Choose gloss for a reflective surface, uncoated for a natural feel, or matte for a subdued finish. These cover stocks also make tickets suitable as keepsakes.
- If staff need to write on tickets, choose 14 pt. Uncoated and test your preferred pen. Gloss surfaces are less suitable for handwritten notes.
- Choose your finish through the paper selection; separate UV and aqueous coatings are not offered. Do not base your artwork on a front-only coating or a quantity-dependent coating treatment.
- Compare quantities in the order form for the selected configuration; the available range is 50 to 30,000 tickets. Displayed prices are samples.
- Use tickets for concerts, theater, corporate gatherings, community events and nonprofit fundraisers. Put essential entry information on the front and directions or admission terms on a printed reverse.
- Cover describes card stock rather than lighter book or text paper. Point measurements describe thickness; pound measurements describe paper weight, so they are not interchangeable.
- Gloss reflects light and suits colorful imagery; matte and uncoated surfaces give a quieter appearance. Avoid large areas of heavy dark ink on uncoated artwork when a lighter design will work.
- A coated surface is different from an added UV coating. C2S means coated on two sides; it is not a selectable specification for these tickets.
- Upload finished artwork or ask our designers for layout help. Review the digital proof for spelling, dates, venue information, orientation and printed sides before approval.
All of our paper stocks are premium quality and printed in full color.

- Proof review:
- Check the digital proof before approval, including dates, times, ticket conditions and front/back alignment. File corrections can affect when an order is ready.
Keep a high-quality copy of your artwork when reducing file size. Review any upload limit shown by the upload control. Contact us about file problems before approving the proof.
Prepare a 2.25" x 5.75" file for a 2" x 5.5" ticket, or a 3.75" x 8.75" file for a 3.5" x 8.5" ticket. These dimensions include 0.125 inch bleed on each edge; reverse them for a horizontal layout.
Mark trim, bleed and safe margins in your design software, then export only the finished artwork. Keep important text at least 0.125 inch inside the trim. Embed fonts and flatten layers in a print-ready PDF, or export a high-quality PNG, JPG or TIFF. Use 300 dpi and CMYK. These dimensions apply to both vertical and horizontal layouts; downloadable numbering-position or perforated-stub templates are not provided.
