To produce your signage it is important that we get your artwork in the correct format so we can print it clearly and make sure it looks amazing!
Just because you can see an image clearly on your screen does not mean it can be printed any bigger than you see it without it becoming blurry and pixelated. We ask for your artwork and logo files to be in a vector format, this is so that we can enlarge it and it remains crisp and clear. Bitmap graphics are made up of small dots (pixels) and can only be printed as large as they are initially created, any bigger and they start to pixelate. Vector graphics can be made as big as you like and they are always clear as they are built up of mathematical calculations (vectors), so each time you change the size it can recalculate. The most common file formats you will find Vector graphics in are PDF & EPS
The most common file formats you will find Bitmap graphics in are JPEG, JPG, TIFF & GIF
Example 1 : Vector Graphics (showing how a small graphic can be enlarged and remain clear).
Example 2 : Bitmap Graphics (showing how a small graphic is enlarged and becomes pixelated).
Frequently Asked Questions
