Many believe that two colors are better than one. Business cards are no exception to this rule. Two color printing follows the Pantone color guide and frequently used to print logo, design or a symbol in different color. The risk of color bleed is almost nil with two-color printing. Also, if there are higher quantities to be printed, it’s less expensive to use 2 color printing.

Using readily identifiable color for brand logo or image can be very helpful to create the two color effect across geographies and manufacturers. For best text readability opt for black or a dark color background in 2 color business cards.
