Resolution

When designing a mesh banner, understanding the right resolution is essential to achieving a professional and impactful final product. Selecting the correct resolution ensures your banner not only stands out but also maintains clarity and quality. This guide will provide you with everything you need to know about image resolution to create visually striking and effective banners. We also offer an artwork service for clients who don’t have high-resolution files. In many cases, this service is provided at no additional cost, ensuring your banners are produced with the highest quality possible.

Simply put, low-resolution files will result in low-quality prints, while higher resolution ensures better print quality. If your resolution is too low, we’ll notify you before proceeding with the printing process.

Balancing File Size with Quality

While high-resolution files deliver better print quality, they can also be large. If managing file size is a concern:

• Stick to vector graphics where possible, as they scale without losing quality.
• Compress raster images carefully to maintain clarity.
• Resize your design to the correct dimensions before exporting to reduce unnecessary bulk

Preferred Artwork

Selecting the right file format is just as important as choosing the resolution. Here’s a breakdown:

• Vector Files (AI, EPS, PDF): Ideal for banner printing because they maintain their quality regardless of size. Perfect for logos and text-heavy designs.
• High-Resolution Raster Files (JPEG, PNG, TIFF): These are resolution-dependent and can lose clarity if scaled up. For best results, make sure your raster files are at least 300 PPI at the intended banner size.
