What resolution and specs should I send my files in as?
We suggest that you work from the beginning on a properly calibrated monitor with correct ICC profiles to soft proof your images. Because of the very slight differences in monitors and ambient lighting that’s why we made a small test print available to your print job on us. In addition, we suggest your files to be the highest DPI resolution possible: up to 300DPI in 16 bit channel with RGB1998 colour mode, and file type of JPEGs or TIFFs. If you need any more assistance preparing the files let us know. We also offer image processing services.

Is my file resolution enough to print large? How large can I print?
This depends on a number of factors; from its original resolution that the image was captured in, to how large and what media you want to print on. There might be a creative solution, either in the image processing, or in the paper specifications and size. Bring up any concerns or questions you might have during our consultation.

What is soft proofing?
Soft proofing predicts and simulates what your image will look like printed with the specific printer and print media on a calibrated monitor. This involves downloading and installing the specific ICC profile for the media you want your images to be printed on and choosing that profile in your “proof setup” options.
