Recommended File Size For Printing?

Getting the image file right is probably the most important factor in the whole process, there is an old saying in the printing industry - rubbish in, rubbish out - in other words if you start with a poor quality image file then you will be disappointed with the final result.

Colour Space - For the best results please check your images are saved in RGB colour space and have an embedded profile such as sRGB.

File Size - Image files should be a minimum of 100 ppi at 1:1 (100%) of output or print size. As a general rule bigger is better in terms of file size, however do not simply resize (interpolate or resample) an original file size upwards as this may not improve the print quality. We have have sophisticated software that will resize exactly for output.
