What is your return policy?
We stand behind the products we manufacture. If a spelling error is made on our part we will correct the mistake free of charge. Other than that because seals are custom manufactured, we do not accept returns. The type of material being embossed upon can damage the seal press and we do not guarantee future performance. Lastly, if a customer approves the proof for a custom seal we will not accept a return or request for a refund after that point.
This being said, we have been in this business for over a decade and are very proud of our reputation and clientele we serve, and will do everything possible to assist in any way we can to ensure our customers are satisfied.

Can a seal be created for a logo or other custom artwork?
Yes, an impression for an embossing seal can be created for all logs or any type of custom work. Our graphics department can also minimize or expand the size of the image, along with the layout, to create the best possible impression. We will provide customer a proof of the final product before manufacturing.

How fast can you produce an embossing seal?
We manufacture many types of embossing seals, each with varying degrees of complexity. As a result, we cannot give an exact answer as to turnaround time. Generally, stock items as well as straight text are ready for shipping within 2 business days where seals with artwork take longer. If a product is needed for a specific date or time, we will commit to completing that item as we know the requirement for the event in advance. We can also Rush Order and can ship Overnight via Fedex or Courier Service if need be.

Can AtoZstamps.com Replace a Die?
For Embossing Seals which we manufacture, customer can simply order a new die if they want to change the wording or image on their seal. Just simply order under the section “Die Replacements”. Customers can also order multiple dies for the same seal which is less expensive than ordering multiple seals. Upon receipt of the new die, simply read the instructions to remove the old die and replace with the new die. If you are experiencing difficulty, give us a call and our customer service representatives will assist you over the phone. For antique cast iron embossers, changing the die is more difficult and cannot always be done. Often times we need to see the complete seal press in order to evaluate whether or not the die can be changed.

What are the dimensions for both text and an image impression that a seal can be made?
We can make any impression or text image on a round seal with a diameter of 2 ¼”. For rectangle seals the size can be up to 1” x 2”.

How do I submit artwork for a custom seal press?
If your are ordering a seal using our templates simply select a font, stock image and follow the ordering instructions in the check out section. For Custom artwork or text, send us an email of a JPG. PDF. TIF. Or GIF file to atozstamps@aol.com
The image must be at least 600 DPI, black and white, no color or shades of gray. This type of image is also known as camera ready artwork.
It is a common occurrence that customer artwork does not meet these criteria and there are blotchy, faded, or cloudy sections where the image is undefined. When this happens our art and typesetting department can revamp or give a face-lift to the image so that it conforms to the requirement to make a clean, crisp, and sharp embossing seal.
We then send you the touched-up image so you can use it for future reference. The cost of this service varies based upon time required and is quoted after viewing the original artwork.

What types of paper does an Embossing Seal perform best with?
Our embossing seals should be used with 20-30 pound paper stock. Understanding paperweights can be difficult. The term paperweight, and number corresponding with each weight, refers to the thickness and sturdiness of the paper, not the actual weight of the sheet. Examples of this range of paper stock include multipurpose paper for use on an office or home computer, businesses letterhead, stationary, invitations, envelopes, brochures, and presentations.
AtoZstamps.com can customize the embossing capability of the seal to meet the specific requirement of the paper stock. So it is helpful to let us know in advance the type of paper stock being used so we can calibrate the mechanism to perform optimally.
