*About product options
-
Lot:
-
This drop-down refers to the number of identical products you need from that product.
-
The quantities in this drop-down are preset, this is because the unit price is reduced if you directly use any of those quantities.
-
Using Batch you will see the calculation of the configuration you have made in that product at the moment.
-
On some products you will find the drop-down menu Lot or Reduced Price by Quantity, always at the top.
-
-
Quantity:
-
In all the products you will find the Quantity box in the lowest area of the options of each product.
-
This option is usually left at 1 since Lot is usually used instead, to save costs.
-
Quantity multiplies the price of the product and will display it at the end in the cart.
-
You can modify Quantity if, for example, you need 2 different groups of 3 equal decks. In that case you would mark 3 in Lot and 2 in Quantity.
-
Exceptions
-
To extend the limit of cards you need above the limit quantity (162) you can choose another quantity, or the same, and use a larger lot, to save costs.
-
Example: We want 200 cards. It is cheaper to choose a lot of 3 and 72 cards per deck (total 216 cards) than a deck of 162 plus another of 54 (54 is the minimum)
I have too many or missing cards in my order settings
-
The number of preset cards corresponds to standards and cannot be modified.
-
You should always choose a number of playing cards that equals or exceeds the ones you need for your designs.
-
If there are leftovers, you can design them to include them or we can just discard those leftover cards.
If you have any questions about any of the points you can write to us at info@tipia.es and we will be happy to answer your questions.
About prototypes
How can I submit my prototype?
Ludotipia is made up of a series of customizable templates so that you can combine them with your prototype and get the custom components.
We do not receive complete prototypes at Ludotipia. What we offer is the possibility of assembling it by combining different components.
You can adapt your prototype in a couple of clicks with our guides.
Remarks:
The printing format is limited as it is a print run of a few copies.
There are parts that, due to their peculiarities or complexity, are not viable to manufacture in small runs.
About Ludotipia Games
Can I place my prototype as an official Ludotipia product?
At Ludotipia we want game authors to have one more showcase, along with the possibilities of having other sales channels for their products, both in games and custom components.
If you manufacture your game with us and meet the necessary technical requirements, you can post your product on our website and increase the chances of sale.
Also, if you are an AGRpriority customer, you can post exclusive accessories of your game in our online store.
Remarks:
Our production department will study each case in a personalized way, since not all games are viable for on-demand marketing.
Digital printing tips
How should I submit the files?
It is important to follow the instructions in the document preparation guide. Additionally, when using templates, it is essential to use the exact same size as the template. Slightly modifying the size can lead to unexpected results. Once your design is placed on the template, make sure to remove the cutting guides, as everything visible will be printed.
Remarks:
Excess ink can cause imperfections on the edges, in addition, the cut is precise but not exact, so small movements may occur and it is advisable not to have text or images on the edges in addition to making sure that there is enough print blood on the images.
By printing few copies, the margin of error is greater. The tolerance of cutting and die-cutting is between 1 and 3 mm, depending on the material to be printed.
Some products allow you to combine several models. If you have any questions, click here for more information
