What to prepare

Accepted artwork

Vector artwork (SVG, DXF, AI, PDF) for crisp line engraving, or high-resolution raster images for photo-style engraving.

Surface & material

Tell us what you're engraving onto — a stock material, or a piece you're supplying yourself.

Depth & finish

Let us know if you need a light surface etch or a deeper engraved mark — it affects material choice and cost.

Questions

Good to know before you upload.

Can you engrave something I already own?

Often, yes — send photos and the material and we'll confirm it's safe to engrave.

What's the difference between engraving and laser cutting?

Engraving marks the surface without cutting through; laser cutting cuts all the way through. Many jobs combine both — describe what you need in your consultation.

Can I engrave a batch of identical items?

Yes — repeatable engraving is one of the format's strengths. Mention the quantity when you book so the quote reflects it.
