ABOUT

Poster printing across Vancouver, without the print shop

Orders for Vancouver are printed in Canada and delivered by Canada Post, UPS or Obibox: printed within two working days, usually at the door three to five working days after dispatch, tracked, standard delivery included, prices in Canadian dollars. Framed prints take one to three working days to make first.

Vancouver prints the trail: a phone photo from the Chief or the Sea to Sky, printed big for a wall. Those photos are 3:4, the shape of 18x24 and 24x32, and the guide below is about getting one from the camera roll onto the wall sharp. From abroad, switch the country to Canada for dollar prices and local times, their address at checkout and yours as the buyer.

The paper is 240gsm giclée in matte, satin or gloss at one price; frames are Black, White or Oak pine with plexiglass, ready to hang. Inch sizes and A-series, no minimum, three or more prints to one address 20% off.

Homes
Photos, digital downloads, children's drawings, gig posters. One print, no minimum, delivered to the door.
Businesses
Office art, event signage, exhibition and market prints. Pay per order, no account manager required.
Sellers
More than 5,000 shops print with us every day, which is why a single poster costs so little.
THE PAPER

Paper you can feel

Every poster is printed on 240gsm archival paper, FSC-certified, with giclée-quality inks. It's the paper our sellers get rave reviews for, and it's the same for a single print as for a thousand. Three finishes, all the same price.

Gloss
Bold, vibrant colours with a reflective shine. The one for photos.
Satin
Smooth, subtle sheen with minimal glare. Lifts colour without the shine.
Matte
Classic flat finish, no reflections. The choice for art prints and anything behind glass.
FRAMING

Order from anywhere in the world: it's printed in the country it's going to, delivered tracked to their door with standard delivery included, and if you write a message in the basket it's printed on a slip and packed with the print. Nothing in the parcel shows the price or where it was ordered from; the receipt and tracking come to you.

No print shop, no queue, no phone call. Choose, upload, pay, and it's on its way.

Choose a size

A5 to A0, 5x7 to 28x40 inches and squares. Pick the one that suits the shape of your image; the crop frame changes to match it.

Upload and crop

Drop in a photo, a design or a print file, move the crop until it looks right, and what you see is what prints. Add a finish, or a Black, White or Oak frame.

We print it near you

Pay online and it goes straight into production at a press in your country, so there's no customs and nothing crossing an ocean.

Printing in Vancouver: your questions

Will a phone photo from a hike print well at 24x36?

From the original on a recent phone, yes; from a copy shared through an app, no. The preview shows you before you pay, and the uploader flags a small file.

Can I order from the UK or Hong Kong for someone in Vancouver?

Yes. Switch the country to Canada with the button on this page, their address at checkout, yours as the buyer; printed in Canada, paid in dollars, no customs.

Does the damp affect the print?

Not on an indoor wall. Heavy paper and pigment inks don't mind a wet winter; keep it out of a bathroom, or frame it behind plexiglass.

How long to Vancouver Island or the Okanagan?

A day or two more than the city, by the same carriers; the tracking shows where it is.

Poster printing elsewhere

Delivery covers Metro Vancouver, including Burnaby, Surrey, Richmond, North Vancouver, Coquitlam and Victoria, at the same price. Across the country: Canada. Nearby: Calgary and, across the border, Seattle.

From the trail to the wall: printing a hiking photo

The photo is already on the phone; the job is getting the right version of it. Open the camera roll, not the chat where you sent it, because sent copies are shrunk to a quarter of their size. A recent phone's original is around four thousand pixels wide and prints sharp at 24x36.

Phone photos taken the normal way are 3:4, which fits 18x24 and 24x32 without a crop; sideways, 24x18 or 32x24. The crop tool shows the fit, and the preview shows it framed. Matte for a view with a lot of sky or snow, which keeps the gradients smooth; satin for forest and colour. Framed prints are matte behind plexiglass.

Go bigger than you think for a landscape; mountains look mean at 11x14 and like a window at 24x36. Black frames for most views, Oak if there's wood in the room.
