What are the design guidelines for laser engraved products?

CO₂ Laser Engraving (plain & simple)

At Merch Crafters we engrave with CO₂ lasers. The beam removes a super-thin layer of the surface, so your art—names, logos, even photos—becomes permanent.
The laser varies power to mimic light and dark (grayscale), giving crisp, durable detail that becomes part of the product.
Heads up: the final look always depends on the material.

How it looks by material

Wood & Coated Metals

• Grayscale-friendly: light pixels engrave lighter, dark pixels engrave deeper.

• Great for smooth shading, textures, and photo-style detail.

Glass

• Frosted, on/off dot pattern—no true grayscale.

• Bold, high-contrast art works best; use clean lines and solid shapes.

Design do’s (general)

• Files: PNG or SVG.

• Transparency: Transparent areas = no engraving.

• Detail: Fine detail is possible, but match the style to the material (shading for wood/metals; strong lines for glass).

Design do’s for vector (SVG) files

• Outline your text before export. Converting fonts to curves keeps your lettering and spacing exactly as designed—no font substitutions.

Design do’s for solid-color graphics

• Use solid black elements on a transparent background (black = engrave, transparent = no engrave).

• Skip gradients, shadows, and semi-transparent pixels for even results.

• Keep edges crisp (no feathering).

Design do’s for grayscale photos

• Convert to grayscale first so the preview matches engraving better.

• Photos: aim for medium contrast—avoid blown whites/crushed blacks for smoother tones.

• Color gradients/art: push higher contrast so light vs. dark separates cleanly.

• Material matters: results vary with surface color and what color sits under the top layer—run a small test when possible.

Design don’ts

• No semi-transparent layers/pixels. They engrave unevenly.

• Avoid low-contrast gradients. If you use gradients, make the light/dark separation clear.
