Colours — black and white carbonless docket books

We only print in black and white (and every shade of grey in between). AllPrinting does NOT print carbonless docket books in colour.
HOWEVER, as mentioned above, we do print in Greyscale.

If you have an image or logo that needs to be reproduced on your carbonless docket book, and your image or logo is in full colour, we can (at no charge) change the logo or image into greyscale.

Greyscale is black and white, and every shade of grey in between. So your image or logo will still be bright and clear, but it will be in shades of grey — it will NOT be colour.

Take a look at the above-right image. It is a logo, and it is in full colour, with each droplet being a different colour.

 

 

Now take a look at the below-right image. It is the same logo, but the colours have been converted to greyscale (i.e.: converted to black & white, and to many shades of grey). If you look hard enough, you might even see the small shadow to the right of each droplet.

What this shows is that we can reproduce your images and logo in fine detail, even though your carbonless docket book will not be in full colour.
