What does debossed mean for diploma covers?

Debossing typically refers to the process of creating a raised or indented design on the surface of the cover. This is achieved by using a die (a metal or other hard material) to press the design into the material of the cover, creating a textured and visually appealing result.

In the case of diploma covers, debossing is often used to add a tactile and elegant element to the cover. It can be used to feature the school's emblem, logo, or other decorative elements. The debossed design is usually slightly indented into the material, providing a subtle and sophisticated look and feel to the diploma cover.

What is a graduation diploma cover?

A graduation diploma cover is a protective holder or folder designed to hold and present your diploma during commencement ceremonies and long-term storage. Diploma covers help prevent bending, creasing, or damage while adding a professional, formal appearance to your graduation presentation.

What is the difference between Plain and imprinted Diploma Cover

Our Plain Diploma Covers are available in a variety of colors and are designed in a standard 8½″ x 11″ size, opening horizontally for easy presentation and storage.

Our Imprinted Diploma Covers are also offered in multiple color options and feature the same 8½″ x 11″ horizontal opening. Each imprinted cover includes “Diploma of Graduation” elegantly printed on the front for a formal, traditional presentation.

What materials are graduation diploma covers made from?

Graduation diploma covers are commonly made from Leatherette or faux leather (durable and professional). Premium diploma covers often include reinforced edges and stitched borders for long-term durability.

What sizes are graduation diploma covers available in?

Diploma covers come in multiple sizes to accommodate different diplomas. Common sizes include:

  • 8.5” x 11” (most U.S. diplomas)

Always measure your diploma or check your institution’s specifications before ordering.

Why do I need a diploma cover?

A diploma cover serves both practical and ceremonial purposes:

  • Protects your diploma from damage
  • Enhances the presentation during graduation ceremonies
  • Creates a keepsake for long-term storage
  • Adds a polished, professional look to graduation photos

Many schools provide a diploma cover at commencement, but graduates often purchase their own for higher quality or long-term preservation.
