ABOUT

Poster printing for Edinburgh, without the print shop

If you're ordering from Edinburgh, delivery is the standard UK kind: included in the price, tracked, usually two to three working days after dispatch, with no surcharge. Prints ordered before 3pm on a working day leave the same day. Framed prints take one to three working days to make first.

Two things worth deciding before you upload. Size: A3 suits a desk or a kitchen, A2 is the usual choice above a sofa or a bed, A1 is for a wall you want to make the room about. Finish: matte for art and for anything going behind glass, satin or gloss for photos. All three cost the same.

Prices are set for the five thousand or so sellers who use us every day rather than for walk-in customers, so a single 240gsm giclée print from us costs less than a shop job on thinner paper. No minimum; three or more prints to one address are 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.

Printing in Edinburgh: your questions

What size goes above a sofa?

A2 is the usual answer, or two A3s side by side. A1 if the sofa is wide and the wall is bare. Order the size unframed first if you're unsure; it's the cheapest way to see it in the room.

Can I print a gig or event poster I've been sent?

If you have the right to print it, yes: your own design, or one the organiser has given you to print. We can't print other people's artwork or official posters without permission.

How far ahead should I order for an event?

A week is comfortable. Prints ordered before 3pm on a working day leave the same day and usually arrive two to three working days later; Priority at checkout is the fastest option for orders of prints.

What's the smallest size?

A5 and 5x7 inches. Small prints go through the same presses on the same paper and are delivered tracked like everything else.

Choosing a size, wall by wall

The mistake most people make is going small. A print that looked big on a screen looks modest on a wall, so when you're between two sizes, take the larger one. As a guide: A4 and A3 suit a desk, a shelf or a cluster of frames. A2 is the usual size above a sofa, a bed or a sideboard. A1 is for a wall you want to make the room about, and A0 is for a stairwell or a very tall room.

Width matters as much as height. A single print above a sofa usually wants to be about two thirds of the sofa's width, which is why A2 works for most and two A3s side by side works for a wider one. For a hallway or a narrow wall, go taller rather than wider: A3 or A2 portrait.

If you can't decide, order the size you're considering unframed. It's cheap, it tells you more than any guide, and the frame can follow in a second order.
