Choosing Your Fonts & Colors

Fonts

The U-Design theme offers over 600 fonts to choose from. Google Fonts DirectoryChoosing fonts for your website has never been easier. I’ve added Google Fonts as an alternative to Cufón fonts. One of the advantages of using Google fonts is that the actual fonts are served from an online directory the first time the users browser requests them and then cached locally. This eliminates the requirement to have the fonts available on the user’s machine in the first place. Another advantage of Google fonts is that they are not JavaScript dependent and they are selectable as opposed to non-selectable for Cufón fonts. As new fonts are being added by Google to the online directory I will be updating the theme’s list of fonts over time.

In addition there are 10 (ten) standard Web Safe fonts as well as 14 (fourteen) gorgeous Cufón fonts for you to choose from.

Custom Colors

The Custom Colors is a very powerful feature of the U-Design theme. It allows you to customize the colors of all elements from backgrounds, links, text and menu links by section. Many of the theme’s elements are designed with certain opacity so that no matter what color the background they will stay visible.

Background Images

You could also upload background images on per section bases instead of solid background color if you wish. Upload your images or reference a link directly to the image. You’ll also be able to position the images in variety of configurations: from a single background image to repeating tiled images, it is up to you:

In addition, you will be able to save your custom color and background images schemes that you create for future use, especially if you like to experiment with colors or like to change the look and feel of your site frequently.

Large Format Printing.

There’s no minimum quantity, so yes, we’re happy to print you just one poster.  We can print onto a thicker paper if you want and guess what….We’ll print your posters while you wait.

If you’re wanting something a bit bigger then….
A2 – £16 per print
A1 – £23 per print
A0 – £35 per print plus VAT

These larger format posters are all on a nice 250gsm gloss paper and are much better quality than you might get from other printers.  Large format posters take a little longer so please be prepared to wait for an hour or two at the most.

Pop in to see us with your USB stick or email your files to sales@scottishprint.com.

Menu Printing.

We love menus and as a result, we often end up visiting the various cafes and restaurants to try out the food since we all seem to have very healthy appetites.

For some reason we seem to have a lot of Italian restaurants that use us for menu printing but of course, we’re happy to help you no matter your cuisine. We can design and print your menus and are always happy to offer a very reasonably-priced redesign service.  We can print any size of menu and can matt or gloss laminate them if you want something that’s more durable.

Once your menus are ready we can also help with creating menu posters for your outdoor boards or Foamex prints for windows.

Contact us at sales@scottishprint.com to discuss your menu printing requirements.

This is our bread and butter. Every day we churning out (pardon the dairy-related pun) leaflets, booklets and brochures of all shapes and sizes.  We can print you anyrthing from a simple A5 leaflet to perfect-bound brochures.  Remember, we can help with design as well so don’t hesitate to ask if you need any support to improve the look of your marketing materials. We can offer printing in formats including:

  • Single/double-sided leaflets
  • Trifold and gatefold leaflets
  • Stapled booklets
  • Perfect-bound brochures
  • Wire-bound or comb-bound booklets

Business Cards.

It always amazes us when we hear comments about printing being dead. The traditional business card is still alive and kicking!  We’ll design and print your business card in a range of card types (from 350gsm to 450gsm), single or double-sided and with a range of finish types.  For example we can offer:

  • Matt or gloss lamination
  • Soft touch (Velvet) lamination
  • Embossing
  • Spot UV varnishing
  • Rounded corners
  • Non-standard sizes

We can do as small a quantity as you want although it’s worth getting more printed if you think you’ll use them as the price difference can be so small.  Don’t worry if you can’t find the original print files as we can normally recreate your business card design if we need to.
