Preparing Your Files for Printing: A Step-by-Step Guide

Preparing your files for printing is an essential part of the Giclee process. If the file size and format are not correct, then the finished printed result will be poor quality. Making sure your image is a decent resolution and supplied in the correct format is key to achieving the best results. To help guide you through this process, here are some tips on how to prepare your files for printing.

File Size - Images should be a minimum resolution of 300dpi (dots per inch). The bigger the file size, the better the quality; however, do not simply resize an image just to make it a larger file size as this will not improve its quality.

Colour Space - For optimal results, save images in an RGB colour space with an embedded profile such as sRGB. This ensures that any colours used in a design remain consistent and vivid when printed out. It also allows printers to apply accurate colour correction, if necessary.

Preparing your files correctly is essential to achieving good print quality when producing prints from digital images. Make sure that you take the time to check that your images are a minimum resolution of 300dpi and saved in an RGB colour space with an embedded profile such as sRGB before submitting them for printing - this will ensure that there's no delay in getting your prints out quickly and accurately!
