Frequently Asked Questions
— Is there a specific format I should use to send you my images?
If possible, you should send us your image in a photoshop file with a separate layer or channel for each print color. Rathaus Press offers file set up for an additional fee.
— What types of paper can I print on?
Only uncoated paper! The risograph cannot print on fabric or glossy papers. Smooth cardstock works best, however. Most jobs should not go over 80lb Cover for the paper weight.

— What colors can I print in?
The risograph uses specific ink colors, and each color requires a different drum. Rathaus Press has 18 colors available (displayed on the right!). That being said, by printing multiple colors and layering them you will most likely be able to achieve the color you’re looking for.
