What DPI do I need for printing?

About 300 PPI is ideal for pieces viewed up close, like business cards and brochures. Large-format signs and banners can look great at 100 to 150 PPI because they’re viewed from farther away.

Where do I find my image’s pixel size?

On most computers, view the file’s details or properties — it lists the width and height in pixels. Phone photos are usually plenty large; web images and logos pulled from a website are often too small.

My file is too low-res — what now?

Send it over. We can often source a higher-resolution version, rebuild logos as crisp vector art, or advise on the largest size it will print cleanly.
