Overview
We offer archive quality full colour wide format poster printing from A2 and up to A0+, as well as custom sizes (up to 1 metre wide).
Paper choice
Our two most popular paper stocks are matt and silk (prices from £15). We also print onto canvas (please get in touch for price info).
Finishing
To protect your large format prints, we can laminate up to A0 size. This is especially recommended for prints on matt paper, and has the added advantage of making the colours even more vibrant.
Designing your poster
Unless you have access to professional design software, we suggest you use Microsoft Powerpoint to lay out your poster.
If you're already design-savvy, we can happily accept artwork produced in QuarkXpress 6, Indesign, Illustrator, Photoshop (CS & CS2) or Freehand MX. Be sure to include any linked images and fonts when you bring in your artwork.
Additional file formats
We also accept tiff, eps, jpeg and pdf files. Please check with us first if you intend to use any of these file formats as resolution is very important to the quality of your finished work. Unfortunately, we cannot be held responsible for poor quality prints from low resolution artwork.
Turnaround time
We usually ask for 2 working days to produce your poster. During busy periods this can be longer, so please phone to check first if you require a fast turnaround time. Additional work such as framing or mounting also takes longer (up to 5 working days).
Submitting your poster
You can submit your poster on CD or on a USB flash drive. You will need to bring it in person and be prepared to spend 10 to 15 minutes while we check your file and print out a proof for you to sign off.
To minimise waiting time we have an appointment system. To make an appointment please phone Umar on 01274 23 3152.
