Design Mistakes to Avoid in Notepad Printing
It is important to be careful in notepad printing, especially if you are developing your own personal brand of custom notepads. That custom notepad printing will be your identity or your company’s identity to people and it is important of course to make the most positive impression on them. So you should never risk committing any kind of design mistakes with your custom notepads.
Let me help you in delivering the best notepads imaginable for your intended audience (without any kind of mistakes). Below, you will see a list of design mistakes in notepad printing. Study them and remember them so that you won’t commit them yourself once you create your own color notepad designs.
1. Losing the notepad’s empty space – One of the most basic mistakes people commit as they design their very own custom notepads is that they lose that “empty space”. The empty space of course is the notepads reserved space for writing. A notepad is not a notepad without it of course.
The problem that many amateur notepad designers with it is that they sometimes get carried away and use too much of that space for the customized design. This basically means that there are too much design elements on top, on the bottom and even within the empty space itself as the background. This basically hampers the full functionality of the notepad, making it hardly usable. So make sure that you be careful and do not be carried away too much with the design.
2. Making the notepad too colourful – Also, some amateurs make the very critical mistake of using a color scheme that is too colourful. While it is important to add your own personality or a certain potent image for a custom notepad, going overboard with the colors can make those notepads very hard to use and of course just plain ugly and gaudy. So be sure to only use at least 1-3 main colors as your theme for notepad printing. The more managed your colors are the better and more professional your notepads should look.
3. Using cheap binding materials – Many people also commit the mistake of using cheap binding materials for notepad printing. While you can in fact save a lot of money in using those cheap materials, you will also be sacrificing the notepad’s quality itself. Notepads will deteriorate and fall apart faster without very strong binding materials. If you plan on uplifting your image or your business’ image using those notepads, those cheap materials will only fail you. So remember that it is better to invest in more reliable binding materials to make the best color notepads.
4. Using cheap paper – You should also try to avoid using cheap paper. Again, while saving money in notepad printing is a good policy, you should not sacrifice the notepad’s quality too much, especially the paper that it uses. Smooth paper with medium thickness and a matte finish should be well and good for most purposes. This allows for a good notepad finish without overtly spending too much in notepad printing.
5. Using impractical sizes – Finally, you should be careful in using different notepad sizes. One of the common mistakes that amateurs commit in notepad printing is to use a random sized notepad as their main template. Each size of a notepad has a specific purpose for its print.
Smaller notepads are of course for more mobile type people who need to store the notepads in a pocket, while those larger letter-sized types are meant for more formal documentation. Always use the best practical size for your objectives so that each of those notepads can function more effectively for its purpose.
Great! Now make a mental note of all of these sample mistakes and make sure you avoid them in your notepad printing process. Believe me, you don’t want to mess up your color notepads by committing these mistakes.
