About Diploma Personalization

Full personalization is included in the college diploma printing cost.

Raised Ink Thermography

Applying raised inks is a tedious process.  For instance, old-style thermography consisted of running a thick, slow-drying ink through a press, applying a powder, and heat curing the diploma paper to create the slightly puffy effect.

Although the process is still time consuming by handling the diplomas one-at-a-time, we now run several layers of UV cured white ink prior the adding the finished coat of colored ink to produce the same elegant effect.

There is a fixed charge of $4.50/diploma for this service.

NOTE: If ordering a diploma sheet with raised ink and our “Personalize-and-Print” WORD template, it is highly recommended to utilize a high quality inkjet printer instead of a laser printer.

Metallic Spot Foil Imprinting

Let us add that final touch to your college diploma design by adding hot foiled metallic imprinting to your diploma.  This is not embossed.  It is a flat metallic foil imprint.

• The standard foiling fee is $4.25/diploma.  However, larger areas may incur a surcharge.
• There is also a one-time magnesium die manufacturing charge of $105.00 for large format college diplomas.

Metallic Foil Embossing

New in 2025!  We can add blind embossing or embossing to foiled logos and emblems. There is a substantial initial investment in the manufacturing of multiple dies, but the final diploma product is absolutely stunning.

• The standard foiling/embossing fee is $4.75/diploma.  However, larger areas may incur a surcharge.
• There is also a one-time magnesium die manufacturing charge of $225.00.
