Personalising Your Name Labels

Personalising Your Name Labels

What font do you use on your personalised name labels?

We use a font called CG Triumverate, which we print in a black colour and a bold emphasis. We feel this creates a font that is really clear and easy to read on your personalised name labels.

What font size will be used to print my school name labels?
The font size is determined by how many characters you request. Our system counts your characters and then picks the largest font size that will allow your text to fit on...
What characters can I use on my personalised name labels?

Can I add pictures / images / emoji onto Stikins ® name tags?

Sorry, but our system cannot print images in any form.

Can you print characters from different alphabets?

Our system can only print characters from the English alphabet.

How do I leave a line blank?

What information should I put on my personalised labels?

Should I use 1 line or 2 lines?

If you are using no more than 12 characters IN TOTAL, you can choose "Name on one line" to get a larger font size. Otherwise, we recommend using the default "Name on two lines".

Stikins ® name tags are printed with a centralised layout, so that your text will always sit neatly in the centre of your labels.

How many characters can I fit on each line?

You can request up to 22 characters per line; we recommend a maximum of 20 to get the best possible font size. If you require 12 or fewer characters in total, including spaces, (e.g. "Barney Young") you can use the one line layout to get a larger font size. 
If you need to include more detailed information, we can manually split personalisation over three lines. You will need to order by phone OR add a note as you checkout to request a three line layout.
