Preparing Your Files for Print

DIGITAL CAMERA PHOTOS ALL IMAGES AI, PDF, PSD COLOR ADJUSTMENTS
We do not recommend the economy poster option for printing of photographs. Please see Photo & Art Prints or Canvas Prints for digital photo printing.
  • • Economy posters always include about a 1/4" white margin around the edge of the print. Any borders included in your image will be printed in addition to this default margin. For borderless printing see Photo & Art Prints
  • • Margins or crop marks in your file WILL be in your print.
  • • Don't leave transparencies where you want white background - fill them with white. Our image processor sees transparency on the edges of a PDF file as margin to crop out, and can reduce the printed area of your image as a result.
  • • DO choose to "embed fonts" when you save out your print ready file - otherwise we may not have the font you used, and our system will replace it with a generic font that you probably won't like.
 Make all color adjustments before uploading your file. We do NOT adjust color - we assume you have the color the way you want it in your image. We also do not reprint on color alone.

Electrical Set-Up's:

Recessed Set-up: Hey Glowbox, I started by having my electrician come in to run 2 recessed electrical boxes that were big enough to store the adapter transformers. Biggest advice I can offer is to be sure to measure to ensure that the power cord can fit directly behind the frame once hung. Recessed electrical boxes: Home Depot: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-TV-Multimedia-Recessed-Box-5053-WH/207161878?MERCH=REC-_-plpbrowse_multi-_-206456267-_-207161878-

 

Floating Set-Up:  Michael set up for floating: The boards are  2x2's from Home Depot cut down the lengths to exactly the frame width then cut a 45 degree chamfer leaving about half an inch of the 90 degree cut so the frame screws had enough to bite into. The chamfer helps the backlight from being blocked in too much. I did all the cuts on a standard chop saw. “I have them on WiFi switches so you can control poster and backlight through Alexa.
