Letterpress printing is the technology for reproducing text that gave the world everything from Gutenberg's bibles to the dinner menus of the grand ocean liners. It is the craft of pressing inked words and images, cast in metal or cut from wood, directly into paper. The letter forms leave their mark, adding a sensuous texture to the page and evoking things that last. Custom-designed letterpress printing from Woodside Press transforms everyday items -- personal stationery, invitations, announcements -- into objects to admire and save.

Woodside Press's holdings include hundreds of metal and wooden typefaces and classic ornamental material. Supply the wording, and we can provide design, typesetting, proofs, paper- and ink-color recommendations, and high quality letterpress printing. Alternatively, we can work in collaboration with graphic designers to execute their work in letterpress quality. We also offer editorial consulting to help you refine your message or apply the rules of etiquette to your social printing.
