Question

What paper stocks and thicknesses are available for poster printing?

Answer

4OVER4 posters are offered on several stocks, with coating and single or double-sided options, and the sizes span from small standard formats up to large format. The exact stock weights and finishes shown depend on the product and size you choose.

  • Stocks include gloss, silk/matte, uncoated, and synthetic plastic, ranging from budget-friendly 12lb paper up to 100# gloss text and heavier poster weights that resist curling.
  • Add-ons include a high gloss UV coating and printing on one or both sides. Matte reads better under bright light, while gloss makes colors pop.
  • Offset posters use text and cover weights measured in points, while large-format posters print on wide-format media built for bigger sizes and distance viewing.
  • For outdoor, framed, or semi-permanent display, weather-resistant and waterproof substrates such as PVC, foam core, or vinyl are available; share your size and display location with support for a recommendation.
