Dry Erase Posters (Posters)

• Build your file at the full finished size, at the same ratio as the product you ordered.
• Do not add crop marks or registration marks. They can change the art size and print on your product.
• Do not rotate the PDF page. Build the page in the orientation you want.

When a PDF has no cut line, we trim to the PDF art box. A wrong art box means a wrong crop.

• 100 to 300 ppi at full size.
• Very large banners can go as low as 60 ppi.

Enlarging a low resolution image does not add detail. Start from the original, larger image.

• We accept PDF, JPEG and TIFF.
• PDF is required for cut lines, kiss cuts, creases and white ink.
• Word, PowerPoint, Publisher and Canva share links are not accepted. Export a PDF instead.

The upload limit is 150 MB. For a larger file, contact us and we will send instructions to send it by WeTransfer or Dropbox.

• Set the trim box and the art box to the finished size.
• Set the bleed box to the finished size plus the bleed on every side. Use at least 0.125 in of bleed. 0.25 in is fine too.
• In Illustrator or InDesign, set the bleed in the document setup, then export the PDF with "Use Document Bleed Settings" on.

Bleed is color that extends past the finished edge or past the cut line, so no white edge shows after cutting. It depends on your file:

• Flat image (JPEG, TIFF, or a PDF with only an image and no cut line): no bleed. This is a requirement. Make the image the exact finished size. We print the whole image, so any bleed prints on your product.
• PDF with a cut line: bleed is very highly recommended. Extend the color at least 0.125 in past the cut line. 0.25 in is fine too.
• Double sided PDF: bleed is highly recommended on both sides.
• PDF for a rectangle or a banner: bleed is not required, but it is recommended, with the bleed box set correctly.

Reprints caused by bleed in a flat image are at your expense.

You choose your production time on the product page. Not every option is available on every product, and the price for each option shows on the product page.

• Same Day: ready the same business day if confirmed by 10:00 AM CT. After 10:00 AM CT, ready by 11:00 AM the next business day. Example: confirmed 9 AM Monday, ready by 4 PM Monday.
• 24 Hour: ready about 24 business hours after confirmation. Example: confirmed 9 AM Monday, ready 9 AM Tuesday. Confirmed 3 PM Friday, ready 3 PM Monday.
• 48 Hour: our standard for jobs that need routing or other hand finishing. Example: confirmed 9 AM Monday, ready 9 AM Wednesday.
• 72 Hour: best for complex projects. Example: confirmed 9 AM Monday, ready 9 AM Thursday.
• Variable Lead: only on materials that are low in stock or special order. We will give you a ready date.

Large quantities may need more time. We will tell you before we start if they do.

The Same Day cutoff is 10:00 AM Central Time, Monday through Friday. Your order must be paid, have print-ready artwork and have an approved proof (if it has one) by 10:00 AM CT to be ready the same day.

Shipping time is the time the carrier needs to deliver your order after it leaves our shop. It starts on the ship day, not the day you order.

Orders ready by 4:00 PM CT ship the same business day. We email you a tracking number when your order ships.

Production time is the time we need to print, finish and pack your order. It does not include shipping.

Production time starts when we confirm your order. We confirm it when:

• Your order is placed and paid.
• Your print-ready artwork is uploaded.
• Your proof is approved (if your order has a proof).

Orders placed after business hours count as 9:00 AM the next business day. Business days are Monday through Friday. Weekends and major holidays do not count.

Production time + ship day + carrier transit = delivery date

Example: you choose 24 Hour production, and we confirm your order at 9:00 AM CT on Monday. It is ready at 9:00 AM Tuesday and ships Tuesday. FedEx Ground to a 3 day zone delivers Friday.

Yes. Choose a faster production option on the product page, and a faster shipping service at checkout. Both cost more. If your date is firm, call us before you order.

After you choose your options, upload your artwork. Follow the guidelines next to the upload form, and see our Artwork Requirements FAQs.

Orders with missing or unacceptable artwork are put on hold, which delays production.
