General Questions

Which lenticular software should I use to produce lenticular 3D and animation images?

This is an important question although we don’t believe that software is the first thing you need to produce lenticular imaging.

We think the most important is to understand the process.

To help you to understand the lenticular process you’ll find our “Technology” and “lenticular prepress” pages, also the very accurate information provided by our partner www.lenstar.org.

Our software page is providing links to lenticular software providers focusing on some professional applications.

I am looking for an importer of lenticular films in my country.

DPLenticular is selling all over Europe (and around…), please contact us, we’ll be pleased to forward you the coordinates of the person who is in charge for your area.

The rates of the lenticular lenses and the way that you could help us in running our lenticular printing project as we are UV offset printers.

…As you can see on our website, we are supplying lenticular sheets to the offset printers but we can also bring technical and commercial support.

Technical support: before starting productions and even training we propose to test the press to be sure there is no adjustment necessary to achieve a good result. Second step is organization of an in site training, mostly 2 days, so that we know by experience that you’ll be able to print after these two days. Of course it’s impossible to manage all the prepress questions in 2 days but you’ll be able to decide which software you’ll buy or ask someone to prepare the files for you.

Commercial support: we have an imaging page on our website where we attract the advertisers, showing lenticular work from many different countries and with a direct link to the printers who produced these images. We also receive inquiries that we automatically refer to the printers working with us.
We are the only supplier on this market that is 100% dedicated to the lenticular business and we keep not less than 8 different lens designs in stock. We are forwarding our pricelists exclusively to offset printers.

Could you supply us lenticular sheets with a custom thickness?

This should be analyzed. The lenticular sheet is an optical lens with a thickness that is corresponding its focal point. We are delivering sheets that are in focus, it ‘s the most important. When the lens is thinner than the normal focal point it would normally not be a problem to print animation pictures.

We require horizontal lines in the lenticular sheets.

We can supply this, of course.

Each of our lens design can be delivered with lenticules parallel to the short or the long edge (grippers).

Looking for 30, 20, 10 LPI?

DPLenticular Ltd sells lenticular sheets and rolls in the following ranges: 75 LPI, 62 LPI, 60 LPI, 3D-100 LPI, 50 LPI-M, 40 LPI lenticular sheets and 100 LPI and 150 LPI lenticular sheets and rolls (for narrow web printing).

The lens designs you are looking for is not in our product range.

Can we cut the lenticular sheets half before printing?

Yes you can cut it but make sure you keep the sheets in the same order from the guillotine as they are on the stack – this is the order it was made in.

When its cut you should use the uncut edges for registration on the press not the edges you have trimmed. Run through 1 stack first then the other stack don’t mix them!

If you are using a “52″ size press, please remember that we can propose you sheets in the right size so that you won’t need to cut the sheets anymore.
