Hey everyone,
Does anyone have experience using 12pt for things like tiles and chits? In particular, I'm curious how easy (or not easy) people feel it is to pick up a 1x1" or 2x2" tile printed on 12pt stock? This is for a game where tiles are placed on the table, then later and repeatedly picked up and flipped over. My prototypes so far have all been printed on normal paper & mounted on matte board, which is substantially thicker but requires I glue sheets on. 12pt I can probably do at kinko's or even on some reasonably cheap inkjets that I could buy, which would make my life easier. Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks!
That's ultimately what I'm getting at---having 20 to 30 pt chits printed is a big step up from printing at 12pt. A lot of digital printers can do short-run 12 pt stuff. I haven't talked to anybody who could do heavier on their digitals, which effectively raises the minimums a great deal. I'm debating in my head how low the cost has to be in order to make people not mind less than ideal 12pt chits, and if I can help things (e.g. make the chits larger).
