Common Poster Sizes

Campaign objectives and also where the posters will be displayed. They must be easily visible and capture attention. But at the same time, they must be an appropriate size for the space they will occupy. A large format poster coupled with faithful color reproduction gives your artwork and message the best chance to speak. But a smaller poster may be a better fit if it's to be displayed in a more intimate space. While the exact dimensions depend on your artwork, the purpose of your poster, and the layout, we print most posters on premium art paper in portrait orientation. A landscape-oriented poster is always an option, however, and we can print them in the same sizes as more common portrait posters. The most common poster sizes we offer are:

  • A0—this poster size is 33.11" by 46.81" (841 mm by 1189 mm). A0 size posters are big! They're often used as large-scale planners, explanatory or educational charts, festival programs, public announcements, academic posters, to promote entertainment and events, and more. A0 posters are used to communicate ideas in public information campaigns or to advertise commercial sales, offers, and product deals.
  • A1—the standard size for this poster in most of the world is 23.39" by 33.11" (594 mm by 841 mm) with a popular 34" x 22" variation in the US. A1 posters are used in promotional activities and for advertising movies and concerts.
  • A2—these very common posters are almost half the size of their A1 counterparts. A2 posters are 16.53" by 23.39" (420mm x 594mm). These posters are commonly used in restaurants, shopping malls, and stores to promote menus, products, and events.
  • 24" by 36"these fall between A0 and A1 poster sizes. Trade shows, art shows, and commercial businesses are some of the most common areas in which this poster size is used.

Compared to digital printing services, as a fully equipped and specialist offset printer, we can offer all kinds of advantages when it comes to printing your posters. With a wide range of state-of-the-art printing machines at our disposal, we can offer discounts on large and short print runs of, for example, 24" by 36" posters by running them on a specific machine. While on longer print runs and for our biggest posters like A0, we can keep costs down by using several large-scale printers simultaneously. This also enables us to offer super-fast turnaround times as low as 48 hours before shipping.

Best Poster Paper Options

With all posters, whatever their size and purpose, quality and presentation are vital to the message you want to communicate. We recommend printing on premium-quality gloss or matte art paper to get the most effective and eye-catching results. Gloss and matte both have coated surfaces, ideal for stunning printing that will reproduce your photographs and artwork with faithful color, perfect contrast, and fine-grained detail. Gloss paper is often best for large-scale full-color posters with perhaps less text, whereas posters with more text may benefit from matte paper. Matte paper will still give sumptuous color or black-and-white art reproduction while making the text easier to read. Here's a helpful list of suggested papers for different poster sizes:

A0-Sized Posters Paper

A1-Sized Posters Paper

A2-Sized Posters Paper

24" by 36"-Sized Posters Paper

Lamination and Special Finishes

We also offer a range of lamination options to add visual zest to your posters while also providing an extra level of protection from weather, fingerprints, scuffing, tearing, and UV light damage. The most cost-effective and popular laminates are gloss and matte which offer excellent protection and durability at a low cost. For a luxury look and feel, we also offer soft touch lamination which has a beautiful, almost velvety effect. Ultra-violet coating and varnishing are other potentially useful options.

You may also want to add special touches to really make your poster stand out from the crowd. Options include foil stamping in gold, silver, copper, bronze, and a range of other colors; embossing and debossing; and UV spot coating. And if you have large posters destined for long exposure in outdoor spaces, ask us about sun-resistant inks, too.

Poster storage, packing, and distribution solutions

We can store your poster for up to a year, during which time we'll deliver them to you or your chosen distributor—including the Amazon warehouse if you're an Amazon seller—on request.

We ship posters flat or in tubes. Most customers prefer for us to ship their posters flat as it takes up less space in the containers and so costs less. To flat pack your posters, we lay them in stacks enclosed in waterproof packaging paper. Next, we put the stacks into a robust carton custom made to fit the posters exactly to avoid damage and again keep costs down. Then we tape all the edges and corners of the carton before shrink-wrapping and loading onto a pallet if it is to ship by sea, otherwise we don't use a pallet as it's not needed to ship by air and would add extra weight. Tube packing is more expensive because it takes up more space in the transport containers.

We offer shipments either by sea or by air with our trusted partners at FedEx and DHL. You can be confident that we will choose the most economical shipment option for you based on your delivery address.

Hardcover Board Book Bnding

This binding method adds a hardcover to a standard board book for extra durability and a premium feel. Like traditional board books, the pages are glued together rather than bound, with a printed sheet wrapped over the first and last boards and across the spine. The difference is that a hardcover is then applied, enhancing protection and making it a popular choice for high-quality board books.

The interior pages will have rounded outer corners. The corners of the cover are not normally rounded. If you need round corners for your cover, please contact us.

Inner Lamination

We laminate all the interior pages.

Paper

Board books are made of the same paper throughout, so there’s no difference between the cover and the interior pages.

Most board books feature colorful illustrations, cartoons, or other artwork. So, we recommend printing on C1S paper to get the best results.

coated one side (C1S) paper

C1S paper—also called “coated one side” paper—is paper that has been treated with a special coating on only one side, while the other side is left uncoated. The coated side has a brighter, smoother surface, making it ideal for vibrant, full-color printing of the artwork and text of your story. The uncoated side has a more natural, rougher texture, but in board book printing, this rough side is not visible because two sheets are glued together, with the uncoated sides facing inward. This way, only the smooth, coated sides are exposed, ensuring a high-quality finish for your book’s pages.

Dust Jacket

The so-called “dust jacket” is the most common and practical way of covering a hardcover book. Used alone or combined with image-wrapping, it finishes your book with a professional touch while adding five printable surfaces—front, back, spine, and two inside flaps. We can print it in full colour, gloss coat it, matte coat it; emboss, deboss, laminate, and foil stamp it, too, for added effects.

Hardcover Book Dust Jacket

End Sheet Paper

  • If your book size is 8.5″ x 11″ or less with an interior page count of fewer than 320 pages, then a good option for the end sheets is 140 gsm / 95 lb offset paper.
  • If your book size is larger than 8.5″ x 11″, then 180 gsm / 122 lb offset paper would be better.
  • If your end sheets will be printed and your book’s interior uses gloss or matte art paper—say, for an art book or coffee table book—to make sure the colors match well, use 157gsm / 58 lb gloss or matte art paper for your end sheets.
