How Your Customised Diary 2025 Is Printed & Made
Design your own diary with Contrado and you will be amazed at the traditional methods and attention to detail we give to each and every order. Your diary is made using book blocks, which are sourced from Florence Italy. These blocks are used in the creation of your diary. Bound by hand by a team of skilled bookmakers, your designs are printed onto the stunning Monroe Satin fabric. This woven textile is renowned for its incredible print quality. Your diary is filled with 140 pages of fine, 110gsm ivory paper, with a handy week to view layout.
Design Tips
Your custom diary is covered with gorgeous Monroe Satin fabric. With a silky smooth touch and a luxurious finish, this fabric was chosen thanks to its myriad of qualities. As Monroe is a woven fabric, it has a slight grain which can be seen and felt. This is a natural attribute to the fabric. The grain gives the surface a slight texture. This means that although fine lines and details will print well, they won't appear quite as sharp as larger details. We therefore recommend creating designs with slightly bolder pattern and larger text, to ensure the sharpest and most detailed finish.
How does this product enhance my...
Home
Diaries are one of the most useful pieces of stationery you can own. It's all very well and good having your appointments and arrangements on your smart phone, however there is something rather luxurious, not to mention therapeutic, about writing it down in your own diary. Design your own diary with artwork you have created, designs that inspire you or photography that makes you smile, and enjoy organising your life your way.
Business
No matter how many of us use smart phones and tablets to organise our lives, there is something comforting and authentic about having an actual diary. Create custom diaries for your business, so that your staff are always on top of meetings and appointments. Create a design featuring your company's branding and logo and gift a diary to every member of staff. No more excuses for employees being late for meetings.
Design Brand
Stationery is one of those things that everybody loves, no matter what age they are. If you are a designer or artist, consider expanding your product line to include custom printed diaries. Your designs will look stunning printed on the luxurious satin fabric covers, and customers will love to be able to enjoy your art in their every day lives.
Print guidelines & finishing
Print Guideline
What's the best resolution to print in?
We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally, your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation.
Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?
For multi-coloured or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.
Which colour model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?
We advise providing images in the RGB colour space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best colour results.What does this mean? In your editing software choose RGB as the working space, and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)
What does GSM mean?
Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics).
What are bleed areas?
When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.
Do you print on garments a customer supplies?
Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat fabric and sewn into finished products, which gives a better-finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what gets the best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily.
Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?
We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 2-3mm, which is close enough for most patterns but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns.
Can I print my own Labels?
Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding. If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.
How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?
With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water-based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colours and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfilment.
