Many of our items combine for a quantity discount in tiers of 5, 10, 25 or 25 cartons. There are some smaller clear pouches and other items which do not combine or do not have quantity discounts. Your shopping cart will reflect your quantity discount and if you reach one of the discount tiers, your total will be reduced accordingly.
Currently, we do not allow online ordering in quantities of less than a carton (100 pieces). If you need to order 25 or 50 pieces of an item, please call our toll free customer service number at 1.800.821.1333 and we will be happy to assist you.
When you provide us with your contact information, we NEVER share your information with any other company or entity.

We try to send less than one per month, unless an update or news about Lamcraft needs to be shared with our customers.

In addition we offer a loaner laminator at your request should you need a laminator during the time yours is being repaired.

The paper stock and printing process currently used to create our micro-perfed cards works best with laser printers. Occasionally, inkjet printing smears on the surface of the cards, especially if not allowed to dry. Print quality also tends to vary depending on make and model of inkjet printer. Therefore, we recommend using a laser printer for best results.
Sending a single bookmark through your printer will cause a paper jam. However, on most printers you may print two bookmarks at a time without any problems. To do this, the first and second bookmarks need to be “full” to print the front side, leaving bookmarks three and four “empty.” Then, to print the back, the third and fourth bookmarks need to be "full" leaving positions one and two “empty.”
Most inkjet printers have a smaller printable area than laser printers. Because of this you may occasionally have trouble with text being cut off on the last bookmark (or trailing edge of the paper). To work around this, we have written a page of instructions on printing bookmarks two at a time.
Digital Memories is designed exclusively for use with Lamcraft’s Micro-Perfed Premium Memorial Bookmarks. The software uses Lamcraft’s unique designs as background templates so that you can position the text and obituaries correctly on each style.
Currently, the Digital Memories software is only for use with Lamcraft’s Micro-Perfed Premium Memorial Bookmarks. The software shows each bookmark style, front and back, in a window that allows you to position a verse and obituary on the card in the typestyle and size you prefer.
To insert graphics into Digital Memories you need to save your graphics as one of the following file types: BMP, GIF or JPEG. Most scanners can save your files in at least one of these formats. BMP is a Windows Bitmap file. GIF and JPEG files are often used for web graphics. Photos and logos may be saved in any of these formats.
Currently, photos and other graphic images can only be resized in the Digital Memories program. Cropping images or other special effects must be done in another program before importing into Digital Memories.
After you have printed the bookmarks, you will need to separate them and laminate each one in a clear bookmark pouch. We offer clear bookmark pouches with tassel tabs, item #342805 or without, item #343105.
No, you can copy our software to as many computers as needed within a single establishment, with a single mailing address. However, if the computers are in different locations (i.e. if you own a network of funeral homes with different mailing addresses) we ask that you purchase an individual copy for each site.
