Frequently asked questions
When should I use a digital stamp instead of rubber?
Use PNG/SVG for PDFs, e-mail attachments and remote approvals. Keep a physical stamp when your process still requires wet ink on paper originals.
Can Stamp Maker produce a file for rubber stamp makers?
Yes. Export SVG (and a PNG proof). A third-party manufacturer can cut the plate — Nelstack does not manufacture or ship stamps.
Is a digital seal legally the same as a rubber stamp?
Not automatically. Authority comes from your organisation’s rules and applicable law, not from the image file alone.
Do I need both digital and physical seals?
Many Indian offices keep both: PNG for scanned paperwork and a rubber stamp for counter visits. Design once in Stamp Maker and reuse both ways.
Are Nelstack templates government-approved seals?
No. Templates are design starters for stationery. They are not official commissions or certified emblems.
