Good to know
What materials can be laser engraved at local print shops?
Print centers commonly engrave real leather, leatherette, wood, acrylic, anodized aluminum, glass, and laser-safe plastics. Bare metals require fiber lasers or specialized thermal marking sprays like CerMark, which not all print shops stock.
How much does laser engraving cost and how long does it take?
Single item setup and engraving fees range from $20 to $50 depending on job complexity. Quantity discounts drop per-unit costs to $3–$10 for items like pens or keychains. Standard production turnaround is 3 to 5 business days, with 24-hour rush service available for an extra 50% to 100% surcharge.
What file formats are required for custom laser engraving?
Vector files such as AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG with expanded fonts are required for crisp text and line art. For photo engraving, shops need high-resolution 300 DPI grayscale raster images in PNG or TIFF format.
