We follow a range of industry standard ‘print-ready’ file requirements to ensure artwork meets the best format for high quality printing. We accept designs in the following formats:
For best results, we request that design files do not exceed 10MB in size.
At Discount Printing, we pride ourselves on high quality posters. With that in mind, whenever you print—with any service provider—the resolution quality of the image you select and submit as part of your design can impact the overall crispness of the final print. For example, if you choose A1 poster printing, and you want a single image to cover the whole design, it will need to be high quality. A good way to check the quality of your image, and ensure an excellent outcome, is to check the DPI (dots per image). The higher the DPI, the higher the resolution of the image. For a good quality outcome, choose an image with 300dpi for your printing design. In some cases, 150dpi is acceptable, but the industry standard is 300dpi or higher.
Definitely. Whether you submit your custom poster design from Melbourne, Sydney, or a small, rural town, we'll have it ready and delivered in person in the shortest time frame possible. As an added bonus, in addition to the convenience of Australia-wide delivery, we offer free shipping on all deliveries under 10kg. It's just another way we deliver cheap poster printing with the highest quality results.

The process of ensuring artwork is 'print-ready' involves a common set of industry standards.
Here, we’ll briefly go through some of the universal basics including what the terms mean, and why each one is important. Or, read our detailed explanation of print-ready artwork, designed to make the process easier.
At Discount Printing, we require a ‘3mm bleed’ for print-ready artwork. In printing, bleed refers to a visual style where the colour extends all the way to the edge of the paper. 3mm bleed is designed to ensure there are no thin white strips on the edges of the card in the final product.
‘1-up’ printing means that each printed page is a separate page within your supplied artwork file. This is particularly important in relation to brochure and calendar printing, for example.
When designing artwork, there are two main colour systems used to determine colours: RGB and CMYK. Before supplying final artwork, be sure to check the colour mode being used by your design application or software, and change it to CMYK if necessary.
Ensure you create or submit your artwork as one of the following file types: PDF (our main preference for file types), TIFF, JPG, or EPS.
At Discount Printing, we request all artwork is supplied at a resolution of 300dpi or higher, because artwork with a low dpi value can print as blurry or pixelated. DPI is relatively common information that should be easy enough to find—even simple programs like Microsoft Paint can provide a reading on values.
In this instance, ‘paths’, ‘curves’ and ‘outlines’ are relatively interchangeable. Each term refers to the process involved in transforming the text in your artwork into a graphic element. If the text in the artwork is converted and saved as a graphical element, or image, it cannot be changed. ‘Create outlines’—or similar—is a common function in the Adobe suite of design programs.
