Question
What file dimensions should I use for a custom print size?
Answer
Your file should be built at the exact finished dimensions of the print, not scaled up or down, so the proportions match what comes off the press.
- Match the finished size: a print that is 60 inches high by 36 inches wide should be set up as a 60 x 36 inch file at the same proportions.
- Keep orientation right: make sure height and width in the file match how the piece will hang or be displayed.
- Large-format tip: big sizes can be built at a reduced scale (for example, half size) as long as the resolution stays high enough for the full print.
- Not sure: send your file and desired dimensions to support before ordering and the setup can be confirmed for you.
