Modern Light
Clean light and quiet type — the modern unveiling.
Printing this design
A flat pale tint rather than a gradient, with no frame — the most reliably reproducible design in the unveiling set. Nothing bands, nothing thins, and the output is identical from an inkjet, an office laser or a copy shop machine. The lowest-risk choice when the printing is being arranged at short notice.
Choosing the photograph
The rectangular crop keeps the whole photograph, which is the practical reason to choose this when the cover image is the headstone. Nothing is cropped away, so an inscription photographed straight-on stays readable on the cover as well as inside.
Questions about Modern Light
- Is it too plain for the occasion?
- An unveiling is a quieter day than a funeral, and many families want the booklet to reflect that. Where more presence is wanted, Navy & Gold and Heritage Earth carry considerably more of it.
- Can the headstone be the cover image?
- Yes, and this is the design that handles it best. The rectangular crop keeps the stone and its inscription intact where an arch or circle would cut into them.
- Why is it the safest to print?
- Flat tint, no gradient, no frame, low coverage. Every element that can go wrong on an unfamiliar printer is simply not present, so what you proof is what you collect.
