Custom Logo Embossed Seal Stamp Personalized Your Own Design 1 x 5/8 Inches

Made to order and fast.

I love it! The seal is beautiful, it works perfectly and makes the graduation certificates look polished and truly official.

I love my embosser. The lettering was very legible and the quality is awesome. I most definitely recommend & will purchase again in the near future.

I would go elsewhere. When I got mine I knew instantly it was unusable because the text inside the circle was so small, like 5 or 6 pt font. The customization feature is very poor and doesn't give you any idea of what your actual seal will look like. It looked like it was designed by a jr. high student: they put three words on the same line, which made the text so small as to be unreadable. Anyone caring enough would have put each word on their own line in the middle, but there's no way to specify that to this manufacturer in the customizer, and there is no way to know what it will look like beforehand since when you put in your text, it doesn't put the lines where they would go on your embosser, it just puts it below your circle design. It's ridiculous. I have a $30 embosser that is unusable and has to go right in the trash. Seriously, go somewhere else.

So first off, absolute hats off for customer service. There were some technical issues that may have made me give this 4 stars initially, but they got a whole bonus star just for how much they helped and got things resolved. Since there were a good amount of comments on here from people that were dissatisfied with their results, I hesitantly reached out a few months ago with some questions about the design I wanted to use, and ended up going back and forth with them quite a bit, and they are VERY responsive, patient, and helpful. I attached my design to the message at their prompting, and made a few revisions to the design a couple times on their advice before finally submitting it. Upon getting my embosser there was an issue with it tearing the paper in a certain spot, they immediately identified the issue and had another made, tested that before sending, and advised me the issue was due to a certain troublesome spot in the art, I corrected the spot, sent them the updated art, and had a new working embosser made and in the mail within days. Pros: * customer service, seriously. before you guys dive in to leave a bad review for some technical issue, just contact them first, they'll make things good. * a good quality embosser for the price, yeah, it's not as ​sturdy as the old solid diecast metal ones of yesteryear and probably won't hold up for decades, but it's also a fraction of the cost with fast turnaround time, and looks great Cons: * really minor ones. the embosser plate is an odd size compared to my other embossers, so if you already have a desktop embosser from someone else you probably can't use the handheld plate in it, it won't seat right because the hinge is shorter and the "bite angle" is different, and they don't seem to sell a compatible desktop embosser as a standalone item Tips: * absolutely follow their guidelines for creating a file. try to work only in black and white if you can, and 300dpi vector is ideal (adobe illustrator output as PNG, etc) a lot of software "softens" the edges with gray, especially when you erase, and that will just translate as jagged edges when it is converted to an embossing die. in fact, save a copy of your image to black and white ONLY before you submit it just to make sure it doesn't look like crap. * try to go for thick lines wherever you can, 1mm+ seems to be the sweet spot for a good emboss. if you look at the templates they have shown, the thicknesses shown there for borders and text are what you should shoot for...no thinner. * contact them if you have any concerns, seriously. * use a decent stock/weight paper for your embossing. if you can hear and see the paper crinkle when you close the embosser (ie if you're using copier/printer paper, etc) you are going to get a bad emboss, probably with shredded spots * when you first get it, emboss a piece of paper towel or toilet paper a few times to get any loose crumbs out, otherwise your first few presses will have black specks embedded in the paper from leftovers from manufacturing. one thing that I will pass on that I learned, is that it's best to not have too many alternating lines of black and white at sharp/tight angles (<45 degrees), close together; this can cause issues with the punch cutting the paper. also, it's best to overshoot your design by a little bit, once you're done with your art, scale a copy of it down to the 1.625" size and print it out and look at it, and make small areas just slightly thicker/bolder than you think they should be. these punches are most likely made by converting the vector image to code for a CNC or laser machine to automatically produce, rather than hand-cast and ground by a person, which is why they're significantly cheaper and quicker than the old-school ones that were, but! it also means that the plates are not just a perfect positive and negative cast of each other, it's a positive and then the negative gets all of the edges slightly nibbled away (think tiny bites rather than a smooth rounded ground edge) so that the embosser works (if it was just inverted, the plates would just cut the paper), and the easiest way to make sure that you don't have faint spots or missing chunks of your image is to make everything just a little bigger, areas that look "tight" when shrunk down and printed need to be opened up more, details that look small when scaled down and printed may be illegible when transferred to the plate if their "negative side" is too small after it gets reduced a second time for the lower plate
