The One-Stop Cleveland Print Shop for Your Business: Menus, Postcards, and Sell Sheets

Foote Printing has partnered with Virteom to engage our customers and users about the services and offerings of our Cleveland Print Shop. This video is all about printed marketing materials we offer to our customers including our menus, sell sheets, and postcards. Watch or read the transcription below!

Quality Menus on Synthetic Paper for Your Cleveland Restaurant

We do a lot of menu printing for a variety of people. In this day and age, the hot thing to print directly on synthetic paper, instead of the traditional “print it and laminate it” route. Foote Printing has adopted this synthetic paper for menus, that’s basically like a plastic type of paper. That way, you can save a little bit of money without having to get it laminated and still have a waterproof menu.

When you're at a restaurant, there's a lot of different beer or food that could get spilled on it and you can just wipe these down easy, which makes them very economical.

On top of that, it looks more professional to your customers. If you want to know more about printing menus with Foote Printing, visit our Contact Us page and we’ll be able to help you out!

Sell Sheets

Showcase the Benefits of Your Products While Differentiating Your Company

Showcase the Benefits of Your Products While Differentiating Your CompanySell sheets are a great thing to use at trade shows. Companies will often utilize sell sheets to showcase their offerings, giving an informational overview of the product’s benefits and qualities. They may also tell you a little bit more about a company event that's coming up or new products in development.

If you want to spice up your brand or maybe look a little bit more professional than you do now, compact that story into one piece of paper. Printed on a nice, high-gloss piece of paper, sell sheets are a perfect tool to differentiate your company in the marketplace.

Cleveland Political Printing: How Off-Year Elections Delivered Our Best Month Ever

Posted By Foote Printing
January 14, 2026 Category: General

If election night kept you up late, you were not alone. While you watched returns, our presses were humming. This off-year cycle turned into the best month ever at Foote Printing, and it revealed what local campaigns in Cleveland truly need to win: speed, precision, and partners who understand the stakes. The Realities Cleveland Campaigns Face This year, the City of Cleveland reduced wards due to new census data. That shook up council races and put every council seat back on the ballot. The result was a surge in political printing with tight deadlines and last-minute changes. We are not a massive national shop. We are a local union printer rooted in Cleveland. That’s exactly why off-year elections are our sweet spot. When campaigns need quick turn times, accurate targeting by ward, and materials that reflect local values, we deliver. What We Printed That Moved the Needle Campaigns are getting smarter about their marketing mix. While a lot happens online, print still does heavy lifting for persuasion and turnout. Here is what we produced most this season: Political postcards and mailers: The bulk of our campaign work. Designed for speed, clarity, and fast mailing. Yard signs: Still essential for name recognition and visibility in key neighborhoods. T-shirts: Street teams and volunteers need branded gear that pops in photos and on the doorstep. Union and solar bugs: We print the union bug and a solar printed bug so your materials reflect values many Cleveland vot

A Freshly Paved Parking Lot, Faster Service: How a Surprise Asphalt Upgrade Helps Us Help You

Posted By Foote Printing
January 14, 2026 Category: General

If you have ever battled weeds and bamboo pushing through old asphalt, you know the struggle. Our delivery area had turned into a patchwork of cracks and potholes. Then one morning, opportunity literally walked through our front door. A paving crew working down the street had extra asphalt and an open hour. We vetted the plan, said yes, and in about 60 minutes our back lot was transformed. Why We Chose to Repave Now Behind our building is a busy delivery and pickup area that keeps your print jobs moving. Over the years the lot had gotten rough. Weeds and bamboo were breaking through, and the surface was not what we expect from a facility that stands for quality. We had already cleared the area and planned a spring repair. Timing and reliability matter to us, and the chance to get it done sooner at a smart price was too good to pass up. The Story Behind the Upgrade Here is how it happened, straight from our team: We cleared the back lot and planned to bring in a pothole repair team in spring. A representative from ARC Roadway Construction stopped in. They were paving nearby, had extra asphalt, and could mobilize quickly. We asked the right questions. Scope, layers, timeline, and price. Two layers of asphalt were proposed, which was key for durability. We phoned a trusted advisor for a gut check. The answer was simple, take the deal, it will save money and time. The crew arrived, and about an hour later the lot looked phenomenal. Smooth, clean, and ready for work. We

The Number One Art File Mistake That Delays Printing, and How To Fix It

Posted By Foote Printing
January 14, 2026 Category: General

You can design a stunning postcard, but one tiny white sliver along the edge will make it look cheap in an instant. We see it all the time, and it is completely avoidable. At Foote Printing, the most common error that slows jobs down or triggers reprints is simple, no bleed. When files arrive without bleeds, trimming tolerances can reveal thin white edges or force us to under trim, which pushes type uncomfortably close to the cut. I am Michael Duhr, and my team and I want to help you avoid those headaches with a few practical, print-ready habits. Bleeds and Safe Zones, The Foundation of Print-Ready Files If your design prints to the edge, extend background colors, images, and elements past the trim. Add at least 0.125 inch bleed on all sides Keep critical content, logos, and type at least 0.25 inch inside the trim, the safe zone A proper bleed lets us trim cleanly even with slight mechanical variance. A proper safe zone keeps your message from crowding the edge if we must under trim to avoid a white sliver. You can give more bleed if you prefer, even 0.25 inch or more, especially useful for complex layouts. Send the Right File Format and Resolution For commercial printing, PDF is your best friend. Export a print-ready PDF with bleeds turned on Include crop marks if your workflow supports them Avoid sending JPG or PNG as your only file, those often come in at 72 dpi and oversized, which prints poorly If you have to use raster art, ensure it is 300 dpi at final s
