There are numerous features that can be varied when making a digipak:

• ~ Number of panels (count the number of panels visible on one side. Each panel can hold a tray, or a pocket, or just be a solid panel)
  

  
  4-, 6-, 8-, and 10 Panel Digipaks

• ~ Height of panels (usually the panel width/height matches the tray size)
• 
  
  5inch Height Trays/Panels:

• ~Paper Stock (We have fantastic ECO OPTIONS for paper stocks- SEE ECO digipaks with recycled stock (ahem, we mean really recycled) coated or uncoated, and FIBERBOARD digipaks in a brown texture, and thick or thin.

~ Pockets (oh wow, get ready - we must have some 30+ variations of pockets already made, and special die cut pockets are not a big deal for us. Tube pockets, slot pockets, diagonal literature pockets, Wide Moon Pockets, Deep Thumbhole, Shallow Thumbhole, Business Card Slots....on and on):

 

~Booklets
We can we do booklets...any size. Stapled, folded, attached to spine, weird folding, gluing to panels,stapled stitched perfect bound, etc etc. Note that booklets come in 4pp increments. We can also use different types of papers and finishes to achieve a matte or glossy effect. Here are a few examples:



Variations on a 8pp booklet:

We print our digipaks on both sides of the paper so that you get full color, continuous art printing across the inside of the packaging. This is especially important if you have vibrant colors or need to make a big impact. Specialty paper stocks like fiberboard digipaks are generally not printed 4C/4C as the fiberboard is brownish and doesn't result in a glaring white spine if left unprinted.

Notice the Continuous Art in these Examples of PIPS on White Stock :



Without PIPS, the inner spine (which is white on white paper) shows:


With Fiberboard Stock, it may or may not matter to have PIPS in your design. Here are some examples of PIPS and No PIPS on Fiberboard Stock:

Art is generally printed in 4C (that's cmyk). If one side of the paper is printed, this is referred to as 4C/0C. If both sides are printed, we refer to it as 4C/4C. We can also do just 4C/1C if your primary inside color is black. Alternately if you are not printing in cmyk but prefer pantone inks, we can substitute 2PMS colors instead of 4C cmyk.

One other fun trick with PIPS is printing behind the pocket, like this secret message:

Take a look at some of our favorite Midheight Digipak examples:

In Lak Ech - Look at the beautiful effect of the soy inks on uncoated, matte paper.

Slipcases can be added to any project—one disc or multiple disc sets can have a slipcase.

Template Creation
Templates are created and sent out when an order is officially placed and the job is set up. Custom Dies take us a little longer.

Disc Manufacturing & Packaging
Disc replication projects include CD or DVD glass master manufacturing, full color disc printing, packaging, assembly, and shipping. Projects do not have overrun charges. Printed packaging is generally full color/cmyk unless special pantone inks are being used.

Test Disc & Color Matchprint — Proofing starts with pdf softproofs and progresses to hardcopy proofsets with a glass mastered test disc and color matchprint.
Additional options: Unprinted Mockups and Press Proofs. Be sure to check out our proofing process page!
