Business Cards

A new UniSA Business card has been introduced, details of which can be found below. The new design reflects the University's updated corporate branding and also takes account of feedback from colleagues on the previous design both in terms of usability and appearance. All new cards ordered from now will be produced in the new style.Some important changes include:

- In keeping with the University's updated corporate branding, co-brands will no longer be used on UniSA business cards. This is consistent with the practice of the vast majority of organisations.

- All pertinent information is to be placed on the front of the card, with the reverse kept clear for foreign language translations. If no foreign language translations are required, the CRICOS code will be the only print on the reverse.

- Staff have the option of ordering a card with raised type - this will be particularly relevant for staff who frequently travel to certain countries , such as Japan, where raised type business cards are frequently used.

Important Information

Schedule for business cards production

UniSA business cards are printed on a regular cycle.

A pdf for all orders is sent to customers (via email) for checking an approval before any printing is undertaken.

Artwork is created and a proof is sent ASAP, up until the deadline for approvals each Wednesday.

The schedule is:

  •     Tuesday - 12:00 noon deadline for receipt of business card orders for the current weekly print run
  •     Wednesday - 7:00 pm deadline for receipt of final customer proof approvals
  •     Thursday – files prepared and sent to printer
  •     Friday – cards printed
  •     Wednesday – delivery of completed business card orders

Please Note:

  •      cards featuring a translation may miss the current print run.
  •      cards must be set using the correct UniSA style format for foreign languages
  •      the creation of art work may be extended beyond the current weekly deadline.
  •      an order for raised type printing will take approximately 14-21 days to produce from artwork approval.

Urgent business card orders (by special arrangement only):

If business cards are required urgently outside of the standard weekly schedule for business card production as described above, Document Services can, by special arrangement, organise production on our Digital Press rather than via the standard Offset Press printing method.

PLEASE NOTE:

  • NO URGENT ORDERS FOR RAISED TYPE CARDS
  • When printed on a Digital Press, UniSA corporate colours on business cards or other stationery  CANNOT be reproduced with 100% accuracy when compared to the same colours printed via the normal Offset Press process.
  • Digital Press business card or stationery orders are accepted by Document Services only on this understanding.
  • Therefore Digital Press business cards should only be used as an emergency substitute for standard Offset Press printed business cards.

If you wish to make urgent or emergency special arrangements to order Digital Press business cards, please contact a member of our customer services team directly (tel 26966).
