We Prepare the Original Artwork\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor handwritten recipes or other source material, we carefully isolate the handwriting from the original paper and restore it as needed for reproduction.

If there are specific elements from the original card that you want to keep, please let us know when submitting your recipe. Once the artwork is prepared, we arrange it specifically for the platter using the design you have selected and notes regarding the composition. Because recipes vary greatly in length, handwriting size, orientation, and source material, each layout is adjusted individually. Text size, spacing, placement, photographs, and additional design elements may be modified to create a balanced composition. If your recipe is written on more than one page or on both sides of a recipe card, we can combine the separate images into a single design. We frequently use content from multiple source materials to create a final composition. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4.
