Question
What file format should I use for polyester printing?
Answer
Polyester is usually printed at large format, so the file specs are a little more forgiving than small paper products while still needing clean color.
| Setting | Recommended |
|---|---|
| File type | PDF, AI, or PSD |
| Resolution | 150 DPI at final size (fine for large format) |
| Color mode | CMYK |
| Bleed | Per the product template |
Because these pieces are viewed from a distance, 150 DPI at full size keeps files manageable without a visible drop in quality. Start from the product template for exact dimensions and bleed.
