FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ARTWORK SPECIFICATIONS

Which are the Accepted File formats?

When it comes to printing, there are a few accepted file formats that will ensure the best print quality. JPEG, JPG, PDF, EPS, CDR, AI, GIF, PSD, TIF, and TIFF files will all produce clear images that won't be pixelated or blurry. However, for large format printing, Adobe Illustrator EPS and AI files are the best options. If you're using a design tool like Photoshop or Illustrator, the file formats that can be uploaded are PNG, JPEG, JPG, GIF, EPS, AI, TIFF, and PSD. These files will retain their quality when enlarged and printed on a larger scale. So whatever your printing needs may be, be sure to use one of these accepted file formats for the best results.

What resolution should I use for the artwork?

If you're not sure what resolution to use for your artwork, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, the minimum resolution should be 150dpi for actual size artwork and 300dpi if the artwork is about half size. Second, provide all image files in inches. For example, if you want your banner to be 2 Feet High x 4 Feet Wide, then set the artwork size at 24"H X 48"W. Finally, remember that the higher the resolution, the better quality your artwork will be. However, it's also important to make sure that your file is not too large or it may take longer to upload or download. If you have any questions about what resolution to use for your artwork, be sure to ask a professional or consult with someone who has experience with this. Thanks for reading!

What Color mode is accepted?

Color is one of the most important aspects of any banner, sign, or related product. After all, the whole point of these products is to catch people's attention and get your message across. That's why we offer full-color printing in both CMYK and RGB. CMYK is the standard color mode for print, and RGB is the standard for digital display. Either way, we will make sure that your colors are vibrant and true to your original vision. Plus, we always strive to deliver the best results to meet your specified color requirements. So no matter what color mode you choose, you can rest assured that your finished product will look great.

What kind of fonts do you support?

Fonts are an important part of any design, and Bannerstore.com is proud to offer one of the widest selections of today's most popular fonts. With our banner design tool, you can easily select the fonts you want from our large library and customize the text for your banner or sign. If you're uploading a file, we recommend that you outline all the fonts in your artwork before exporting it for printing. This will help you avoid any delays in the final printing process. Whether you're looking for a specific font or just want to browse our selection, Bannerstore.com is the perfect place to find the right font for your next project.

Do I have to add bleed to my artwork?

When designing a banner, it's important to take into account the fact that the finished product will be displayed on a larger surface than the design itself. This is especially true if the banner will be hung from a pole or placed on a wall; in these cases, the edges of the design may be obscured by the hardware used to display the banner. To account for this, many designers choose to add "bleed" to their artwork. Bleed is simply extra material that extends beyond the edge of the design; when the banner is trimmed to its final size, the bleed will be cut off, ensuring that the design extends to the very edge of the banner. However, bleed is not always necessary. If your design covers the full surface of the banner and does not extend beyond the edges, you do not need to add bleed. In fact, adding bleed can actually make it more difficult to align your design correctly on the banner surface. So, unless your design requires it, there's no need to add bleed to your artwork.

what size do you offer for banners?

There are a variety of sizes that you can choose from when it comes to banners. The size of the banner will depend on your needs. If you need a large banner, then you can choose a size that is up to 150 feet in length and width. If you only need a small banner, then you can choose a size that is only 2 feet by 2 feet. There are also vertical banners that are 150 feet in height and 10 feet in width. You can also choose a horizontal vinyl banner that is 10 feet in width and 150 feet in length. When it comes to choosing the size of the banner, it all depends on what you need the banner for.

MESH BANNERS

Custom Mesh Banners are made of PVC plastic with 50% of the banner surface being small holes. Those holes in the material allow the air and the wind to flow through the banner, without causing excessive damage, therefore, these banners are typically only used outdoors. Their lifespan is supposed to be a lot longer than fabric banners, but they are not quite as strong as regular vinyl banners. Also, being that the surface of the banner consists of microscopic holes, making the banner semi-transparent, the color vibrancy of the design is not going to be too strong. Another thing to consider is that mesh doesn’t perform too well in the cold. Extreme cold will make the material brittle which can cause it to tear more easily. Overall, custom mesh banners are a good option for outdoor advertising that needs to withstand high winds, but you may want to consider another material if you are looking for durability in all weather conditions or a banner with bright colors.
