Posters do jobs at every scale: a concert bill on a corkboard, a menu board behind a counter, a gallery print, a 60-inch feature graphic in a shop window. We print them in Montreal in-house, from a single copy to volume runs, up to 60 inches wide on a single piece.
Gloss makes photography and saturated color pop. It is the promotional choice: events, retail, movie-poster energy.
Matte kills glare. Under gallery lights, office lighting or glass frames, matte stays readable and photographs well, which is why art prints and framed work default to it.
If the poster lives behind glass or under direct lighting, choose matte. If it fights for attention on a wall of other posters, gloss.
A flat poster is made for frames, walls and tape. For displays that stand on easels, sit on counters or get moved between events, order it mounted on foam board: the poster arrives rigid, flat and ready to stand. For mounted pieces that need to survive handling or weather, step up to styrene or Sintra.

Our in-house design services can check whether your artwork survives enlargement before anything prints.
Most small jobs run 2 to 7 business days depending on the production speed selected, with rush available. Production starts at proof approval; every order gets an online proof. We ship throughout Canada and the United States, and ground shipping is free on orders over $200.
What is the largest poster you can print? We print up to 60 inches wide on a single piece. Larger graphics are produced by tiling or seaming, which is how full wall murals are made.
Matte or gloss for posters? Gloss makes photography and saturated color pop and suits promotional posters. Matte avoids glare under gallery and office lighting, which makes it the choice for art prints and framed work.
Can I order a single poster? Yes. There is no large minimum on most products, so one gallery print and a hundred event posters are both normal orders.
Can you mount posters on a rigid backing? Yes. Posters can be produced mounted on foam board for displays and presentations, or you can move up to rigid materials like styrene and Sintra for durability.
How should I set up a poster file? Supply CMYK artwork at 300 DPI with 0.125 inch bleed and fonts converted to outlines, as PDF, JPEG, TIFF or EPS. Large format artwork may be supplied at reduced scale as long as proportions and effective resolution are correct.
How fast can you print posters? Most small jobs run 2 to 7 business days depending on the speed selected, and rush service is available.
