Resolution
The ideal resolution depends upon the size of the finished print, and the distance it will be viewed from. In most cases we recommend all images should be a minimum of 150dpi (dots per inch) at 100% finished printed size.
Essentially the higher resolution the sharper the image will print.
If in doubt please call us at the earliest instance and we can help guide you through it.
Here is a basic guide.
| Example | Viewed from | Size | Min resolution | Good resolution | Recommended resolution |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Display wall | a distance | 4000 x 2800mm | 50dpi | 72dpi | 120dpi + |
| Pull up banner | fairly close | 850 x 2100mm | 72dpi | 120dpi | 150dpi + |
| A2 poster | very close | 420 x 594mm | 150dpi | 250dpi | 300dpi + |
