- Turning a photo of your rubber stamp into a usable file 4 September 2026: The most common request we see is not for a new design. It is for the stamp somebody already owns, as a file they can put on a PDF.

- Stamp and seal questions, answered plainly 4 September 2026: The questions people type before they start, answered in a line each, with a link to the longer version where there is one.

- Stamp sizes and shapes, and which to use when 28 August 2026: Shape is not decoration. Each one carries a convention about what kind of mark it is, and each one holds a different amount of text before it stops being readable.
- Stamping Word documents and Excel spreadsheets 30 August 2026: Word and Excel both treat a picture as part of the document flow, and a stamp belongs on top of it. Two settings fix that, plus the anchoring trap that only shows up when somebody filters.

- Stampa cuideachta ar líne: stampáil cáipéis gan phriontáil 29 August 2026: Priontáil. Stampáil. Scan. Seol. Ceithre chéim, cúig nóiméad déag agus cáipéis nach bhfuil chomh maith leis an gceann ar thosaigh tú léi. Tá leagan ann a thógann deich soicind.
- Ștampila firmei: ce scrie pe ea și dacă mai este obligatorie 31 August 2026: Din 2017 ștampila nu mai este cerută la depunerea documentelor la autorități. Ce rămâne pe ștampila unui SRL, ce dimensiuni se folosesc și când chiar ai nevoie de ea.

- Stamping on fabric, wood and packaging: what actually works 3 September 2026: Paper ink on fabric comes off on hands. Nearly every disappointment with stamping a non-paper surface is the ink rather than the stamp.

Estamplab is a design tool. These articles describe common commercial practice rather than giving legal, medical, tax or financial advice, and practice changes. What a notarial, professional or medical mark must carry is set by the authority that issued the commission, registration or licence, so check the requirement with them. Only produce a mark you or your organisation are entitled to use.
