Foam Board Signs

Yes. Choose single Sided in the options. Double sided suits boards seen from both directions, such as a sign on a fence by a road, or a board on a stake. Supply two pages in your file (front and back), and say if the back should be the same design. Foam Board Signs are printed on Honeycomb Cardboard 10mm, KAPA tex 5mm, Compact Pressboard 1.6mm, Opal Polycarbonate 5mm, Opal Polycarbonate 3mm, Doublewall E+E Flute 2.3mm, Clear Polycarbonate 5mm, Smart-X 10m, KAPA plast 5mm and Clear Polycarbonate 3mm.

You can choose none or scratch resistant gloss protection. A scratch-resistant varnish protects the printed surface from handling.

For large items read from a distance, 100 to 150 dpi at the finished size is enough. At 100 dpi a 700 × 1000 mm design needs about 2,756 × 3,937 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.

Yes. A person from our team checks every uploaded file for size, bleed and resolution, and tells you if something needs fixing before anything is made. If you design online instead, you approve exactly what you see on screen, and that is what we print. We print what you supply, so check spelling, phone numbers and dates yourself too. Production starts once your order and artwork are confirmed. For Foam Board Signs, set your file up at the size you order, for example A4 (210 × 297 mm).

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. Foam Board Signs come in 7 listed sizes, from A4 (210 × 297 mm) to 700 × 1000 mm.

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. Foam Board Signs come in 7 listed sizes, from A4 (210 × 297 mm) to 700 × 1000 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. Foam Board Signs come in 7 listed sizes, from A4 (210 × 297 mm) to 700 × 1000 mm.

Yes.

For Foam Board Signs, set your file up at the size you order, for example A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Yes. A printed board screwed to the wall or fascia makes a tidy shop sign. For example, 500 × 700 mm from £395.47. Check with your landlord, and with the council if the sign is large or lit, because shop signs can need advertisement consent.

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 Foam Board Signs, set your file up at the size you order, for example A4 (210 × 297 mm).

Strong contrast, a plain bold typeface and a size to suit the viewing distance make the biggest difference.
