5 Mistakes to Avoid When Ordering a Custom Plaque
Ordering a custom plaque should be exciting—not stressful. Here are the biggest mistakes we see (and how to avoid them).
1. Sending Low-Quality Logos
Blurry images = blurry engravings. Always send high-resolution files (SVG or PNG preferred).
2. Waiting Until the Last Minute
Custom work takes time. Don’t wait until a week before the ceremony.
3. Overloading the Design
More text ≠ better. Clean layouts always look more professional.
4. Not Double-Checking Spelling
Yes… it happens more than you think.
5. Skipping the Details
Dates, ranks, units—these matter more than you realize.
We guide you through all of this—but a little prep goes a long way in getting the perfect final piece.
