Billboard Posters

Yes. You can upload your file on the product page, or place the order and upload later: we email you after you order. Your designer can send the file to us by email or WhatsApp with your order number, so it does not have to come through you. The turnaround clock starts once your order and artwork are confirmed, so send the file early if you have a deadline. Billboard Posters come in 3 listed sizes, from 4 Sheet Poster (1016 × 1524 mm) to 96 Sheet Poster (3048 × 762 mm).

A PDF at the finished size is best, with fonts embedded or converted to outlines. We also take AI, EPS and SVG, and high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF files. Word, PowerPoint and Canva files are fine as a starting point, but export a full-quality PDF if you can. You can upload up to 3 files of 25 MB each on the product page, or upload later: we email you after you order. For Billboard Posters, set your file up at the size you order, for example 4 Sheet Poster (1016 × 1524 mm).

For large items read from a distance, 100 to 150 dpi at the finished size is enough. At 100 dpi a 96 Sheet Poster (3048 × 762 mm) design needs about 12,000 × 3,000 pixels. Logos and text are best as vector artwork, which stays sharp at any size. Photos taken from websites or social media are usually far too small; our file check flags images that may print soft.

Our file check catches the usual problems: the wrong size, no bleed, low resolution images and text too close to the edge. We tell you what needs fixing before anything is printed, and you can send a new file. If you would rather we sort it, the typesetting option (£15, 1 proof and 2 rounds of changes) sets your text and logo on a clean layout. Billboard Posters can also be designed in our online designer, where you approve exactly what you see.

Yes. When you order printing with a design made in our online designer, the high resolution PDF is attached to your order, and once the order is paid you can download it from My Account and your confirmation email. If you only want the file and no printing, approve the design and buy the print-ready PDF for £9.99. It is digital content, so the right to cancel ends once the download starts. For Billboard Posters, set your file up at the size you order, for example 4 Sheet Poster (1016 × 1524 mm).

A 6 Sheet Poster (1200 × 1800 mm) poster starts at £102.38 on the lowest priced options and Saver turnaround. Pick that size in the calculator to see the price with your own material, finishing and turnaround. At that price delivery to a UK mainland address is free.

Only delivery is added. The goods price you see in the calculator is final, with no VAT added. UK mainland delivery is £7.95 per order and free when your goods total is £99 or more after any discount code (artwork and design fees do not count towards it). Any artwork or design fee you choose shows as its own line in the basket, so you can see exactly what you are paying for. Billboard Posters are made to order by our UK production partner.

The quantity is part of the options: from 1 up to 99 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and more). The price shown is the total for the quantity you pick, so divide by the quantity to compare the price each before you order. For a bigger run than the options list, ask for a quote with the size, quantity and deadline. Billboard Posters are made to order by our UK production partner.

The smallest quantity in the options is 1, then 2, 3, 4 and 5. The price shown is the total for that quantity, so compare the price each at two or three quantities before you choose. Ask for a quote for anything the options do not list. Billboard Posters are made to order by our UK production partner.

Supply CMYK where you can. RGB files are converted to CMYK for print, which can make very bright greens, blues and oranges look slightly duller. If you need a brand colour matched, give us the Pantone reference and we match it as closely as the material allows. Small differences between a screen and the printed item are normal, because screens give off light and print reflects it. For Billboard Posters, set your file up at the size you order, for example 4 Sheet Poster (1016 × 1524 mm).

It looks for sample text you have not replaced, text below the smallest size that prints clearly, anything too close to the edge or outside the safe area, logos or photos too low in resolution for the size, and items overlapping text. Blocking problems must be fixed before you can approve; warnings you can accept if you are happy. The checks do not read your spelling, so check names, numbers and dates yourself. For Billboard Posters, set your file up at the size you order, for example 4 Sheet Poster (1016 × 1524 mm).

No. We are not VAT registered, so we do not charge VAT and cannot issue a VAT invoice. You get an order confirmation email with the items, options and total paid, which works as your receipt.

Unlaminated paper and card go in normal paper recycling. Laminated items, foils and plastic cards are harder to recycle, so check your local council's rules. Billboard Posters are printed on 150gsm Satin Poster Paper and 120gsm Blueback. Store it dry and away from heat between uses.

Keep printed paper and card flat, in the box it came in, somewhere dry and away from direct sun and heat. Damp makes paper curl and can stop it feeding through printers; sun fades colours over time. Take out only what you need so the rest stays clean. Billboard Posters are printed on 150gsm Satin Poster Paper and 120gsm Blueback.
