Submission specifications

Add 3 mm bleed.: To allow leeway for cutting differences in production, always add a bleed of 3 mm around all edges of your design. Make sure colours, background pictures and layouts extend into the bleed area so as to avoid leaving white lines as a result of cutting tolerances.
Keep 4 mm safety margin: Keep all important text and images at least 4 mm away from the edge of the finished size. Exclusive finishes need to be within the safety margin.
Resolution of at least 300 dpi.: Make sure the resolution of the images and graphics in your artwork are at least 300 dpi.
Use CMYK as the colour mode.: Prepare your files using CMYK as the colour mode, not RGB. Use colourmode FOGRA39 (ISO Coated v2) for coated papertypes and colourmode FOGRA47 (PSO Uncoated ISO12647) for uncoated papertypes. If you are unsure of the colour mode of your file, don't worry we can always convert this for you. Keep in mind this can cause the colours to differ from the original file.
Save your files in uneditable, print-ready file formats.: Save your files in uneditable, print-ready file formats (PDF (1.4 or higher), TIFF, EPS, JPG). Deliver your files in one layer: the background layer.
Convert fonts to outlines or embed all the fonts.: Make sure you convert fonts to outlines or embed all the fonts when saving it to PDF.
Fonts should be at least 6pt.: Fonts should be at least 6 pt.
Use the right values for full colour black.: Use Rich Black (C:63% M:52% Y:51% K:100%) for larger areas and text to get a deep black colour. Do not use this value for text smaller than 15 pt or plain text. This can only be used in full colour printing. For designing black smaller texts use 100% black.
Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.: Force Color Images to CMYK with a 260% ink limit (in Photoshop > Convert Color Profile > Photoshop 5 Default CMYK). Make sure the ink coverage isn't higher than 300%.
Check line thickness.: Lines should be at least 0.25 pt. Negative lines should be at least 0.5 pt.
Check your artwork on overprint.: Make sure no elements in your artwork are set on overprint unless you want this effect in your design. You can read more about overprint in our Help Center.

Frequently asked questions

What is this product exactly? And what can I use it for?

A poster is an unfolded sheet of paper, often larger sized, which is suspended/pasted on windows, walls, columns or plates. Large sized posters stand out impressively and you can be sure that they catch people’s attention
This product can be used:
For business introductions
• Promote discounts or events
• Provide information

What materials can I choose from?

115gsm blueback: This type of paper is mainly used for pasting on triangle plates, two-signs and billboards. The blue back ensures that these posters are not see through, allowing you to paste them easily on another poster. In addition, these posters are made specifically for outdoor use and have a much better adhesion than normal print, because of coarse structure of the back.
135gsm gloss mc: This paper type is the best choice when you're going into the big numbers. Especialy when you want to make an impression with the lowest possible price.
170gsm waterproof PVC: This type of paper is ideal for outdoor use. The paper is water-resistant and is not easy to tear. Therefore, it has a long lifetime.

Will my poster be folded at the delivery?

No, the posters will be delivered rolled up (large sizes) or flat (small sizes).

What is the fastest possible turnaround?

The fastest possible turnaround for Standard Posters is:
Next Day
NOTE: Only applicable for products which require your design: To make sure that your order is delivered at the indicated time, it is important that we receive your file with your design for the product, on time (also called cut-off time). In this way the product can be moved into production on time. The deadline is always communicated in the final step when putting your product together and in the box on the right which details your entire order.
The cut-off time for your printed item may vary. This depends on the combination you choose. This has to do with the manufacturing technique and / or the order quantities.
NOTE: The product delivery shifts a day every time the deadline for submission has passed. This is also the case if the file is rejected by us and corrected artwork isn't supplied before the next cut off time.

Which production techniques do you use?

For the production of Standard Posters, we use the following production technique(s):
Digital printing uses four colours (CMYK) with toners and inks to print digital files. This option is comparable to large home printer, and is cheaper than ‘litho’ printing for smaller quantities. This is because there are fewer starting costs, fewer components involved, and no ink drying time required.
Offset Lithography printing or Litho printing: Makes it possible to provide larger quantities at unbeatable prices. This technique creates images and text with wet ink and transferred to each paper sheet with aluminium and rubber plates. This method is more extensive than its "digital" counterpart because of the different printing materials that are used. Still, it is the most cost-effective option when you order bigger printed batches.

Which carriers are used for the delivery?

For the delivery of your Standard Posters, we use our most reliable carriers which, in most cases, are UPS or DPD.
We also use DHL and our own courier service. However, these carriers are only used for certain products (depending on the size, the turnaround and the quantity).
The Standard Posters that is chosen in most cases can be selected via our website.
Depending on the complexity this can take a bit longer.

Where are the best places that I can place my posters and how?

Depending on the material you choose, you can decide where to place your posters for different goals and usage. Standard poster material is great for inside use on walls, windows, counters and other surfaces. Blueback posters are great to place in billboard signs for example. They are made specifically for outside use. Waterproof PVC posters are also great for using outdoors.

There are several ways to hang and place your posters. For different goals, we recommend different ways. For example, if you want to place your poster outside for everyone to see and attract the attention of passing customers, try using Pavementsigns. If you are looking to communicate new deals, events or if you want to preserve your print for a longer time, take a look at our snapframes.
You can also use double sided tape or poster holders to attach the poster to your wall without damaging the wall or the poster.
