    Thermo is raised, so it most closely resembles engraved printing. It doesn't look like letterpress at all. imho looks like crap in most cases, though I have seen it used well. You can thremo any weight really....

    I used to work at a place that would hot stamp text with a tint foil, then hit it again without foil to deboss it. Looked really good, but prob not any cheaper.

    If they want the look, theyre gonna have to pay for it. On the upside once you have the plates made you can use em over again when you need more printed.
