Halloween Restaurant Menus FAQs

What sizes and folds are available for Halloween restaurant menus?

Sizes: 4.25″ x 11″, 5.5″ x 8.5″, 11″ x 8.5″, 14″ x 8.5″, 9″ x 12″, and 11″ x 17″. Folding varies by size: most sizes offer No Fold, Half, Tri (Letter), Z, or Accordion; 5.5″ x 8.5″ supports Half Fold (or flat); 11″ x 17″ is flat only. Choose folding based on how much copy you need and how the menu will be handled in-service.

Which paper and coating should I pick for wipeable menus versus menus you can write on?

For wipeability and spill resistance, use 14 pt or 16 pt Cardstock with Gloss or High Gloss UV (UV is the most smudge- and moisture-resistant, best for reusable dine-in). For easy writing (e.g., daily specials), pick 70 lb Uncoated or 14 pt Uncoated (ink pens/pencils grip better). Matte coatings reduce glare under low light.

Will double-sided full-color printing show through on thinner stocks?

We print in full-color CMYK on one or both sides. On lighter papers (70 lb, 80 lb), heavy dark areas may show faintly through. To minimize show-through, choose 100 lb Paper or any Cardstock (10 pt, 14 pt, 16 pt). Heavier stocks also hold folds cleaner with less cracking.

How should I set up my Halloween menu file for best print results?

Export CMYK at 300 dpi with 0.125″ bleed on all sides and keep critical text 0.125″ inside the trim (safe area). Use vector text where possible. For rich black backgrounds, use ~C60 M40 Y40 K100 (or your preferred rich black mix) and avoid over-saturating totals above ~300% ink coverage.

How fast can you produce these, and are Same Day menus possible?

Turnarounds: Same Day, Next Business Day, or 5 Business Days (dependent on quantity, stock, and finishing). Same Day is available for select options when print-ready files are approved by the cutoff; complex folds or very large quantities may require more time. Quantities range from 25 to 50,000.
