Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 23 7:38 pm)



Subject: Have any of you taken your work to be printed large format?

I am thinking of printing one of my Vue works, and I know this is not a VUE forum, but I find the Poser folks just seem to be the experts on everything heheh I want to take a JPG that was made in VUE and take it to a printer and have it blown up, and matted/framed.  Can any of you recommend a company that does well with this?  Long ago I had Kinkos do a photo, but not sure if they would do well with digital art?

 

Any advice would be appreciated!

 

Thank you all!

I use "Kinkos" now an then, and they seem to do a nice job, but I send my work to them

in Photoshop format, (no JPG) unless your JPG image is large and sharp enough for that

kind of compression...

Low or no compression is the way to go.

Blowing any format up is very risky. If at all possible, re-render it larger and save it as a TIFF or Photoshop or any other compressionless format.

Before they made me they broke the mold!

There's a Printers forum here, in the other section of the Forums. There's a mod there, and they're fairly knowledgeable about that sort of thing. I've never done anything bigger than 11x17..;)

First of all: no blow up. Second: no jpg.
You'll need some 300dpi, translated into 300 pîxels per inch. You want 20x30 inch? You need 6000x9000 pixels.
Render as tiff, burn on a cd and there you go.

For good colours you better have a good and well-calibrated monitor.
