Print Engraving in NYC

Handcrafted Texture. Unmatched Quality.

Print engraving is one of the most refined and enduring techniques in luxury printing,  valued for its precision, texture, and unmistakable tactile quality.  At GSB Digital, we provide expert engraving services in New York City, combining time honored craftsmanship with advanced production methods to create crisp, raised impressions that clients can see and feel.

Each piece is hand fed into our engraving press, where steel plates apply high pressure to deposit richly pigmented ink into the paper. This process produces a clean, dimensional finish and leaves the signature “bruise” on the reverse, a mark of authenticity known to designers and print specialists.

Our engraved printing is ideal for projects that demand lasting impact and visual elegance, from wedding invitations and corporate stationery to personalized notecards, luxury packaging, and brand collateral. Whether you’re located in NYC or working with us remotely, GSB Digital partners with creative teams, agencies, and businesses to deliver engraved print materials with unmatched craftsmanship, clarity, and attention to detail.

Print Engraving: Technical Capabilities & Production Specs

At GSB Digital, our engraving services are engineered for high-performance print results with unmatched tactile and visual precision.  Here are some key technical considerations to help guide your project planning:

  • Best suited for fine type, intricate line work, and detailed artwork
  • Maintains sharp, clean lines and high-resolution definition
  • Supports opaque inks for strong contrast on dark-colored stocks. Metallic inks retain high shine and brilliance when engraved.
  • Creates a raised, tactile finish proven to enhance engagement and response rate.
  • Performs best on smooth or lightly textured stocks with enough density to withstand pressure without distortion. 
  • Compatible with a wide range of premium paper stocks and finishes such as Mohawk Superfine (GSB Digital house stock), Colorplan, Crane’s Crest, and Neenah Classic Crest. 
  • Can be combined with other techniques (e.g., letterpress, foil stamping, digital printing) for multi-process applications

Design & Production Guidelines

  • Maximum inked image area: 5″ x 9″. The final sheet size can be larger. (Larger designs may be split across two passes if separated by a non-inked break.)
  • Avoid large solid ink areas greater than 0.25″ square
    (May result in ink puddling and textured buildup)
  • One color printed per plate. Multi-color engraving requires separate plates and careful registration
  • If two-sided printing is required, we offer back to back mounting to preserve artwork on both sides while concealing the signature engraving “bruise” on the reverse.   

  • Longer production timelines due to plate creation, hand fed presswork, and drying time.
