ImposeIQ Business Card Creator

Design the card on the card itself, see it in 3D with its foil and gloss catching the light, and write the print PDF, a customer proof and the imposed press sheets.

Capabilities

Standard, die-cut or folded — with the finish built in.

Any element can print as foil, a hologram, Spot UV or a blind emboss. Those are written the way Gilder reads them, so Open in Gilder shows the finished card and makes the embellisher’s files without anyone re-drawing a plate.
