Question

What file format should I use for large-format pop up display graphics?

Answer

For large-format pop up display graphics, submit print-ready vector or high-resolution files set up at actual print size. Getting the file right the first time keeps your graphics sharp at full scale.

Format: high-resolution PDF, TIFF, or EPS.
Resolution: design at 150 DPI minimum at actual print size.
Fonts: convert all type to outlines so nothing reflows.
Color: set your color mode to CMYK for accurate printed color.

Setting	Recommended
File type	PDF, TIFF, or EPS
Resolution	150 DPI at print size
Fonts	Outlined
Color mode	CMYK

If your design needs a QR code, generate a print-ready one with a QR code generator and place it as vector art.
