I desperately need help printing out posters for my room & changing file types.?
O.K. so, I've been through a looong process trying to figure out how I can create posters from images on my computer, and I ended up finding the program Posterazor. http://posterazor.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=about&lang=english the program takes an image, and divides it into different sections, each will be printed on a piece of paper so it can be assembled to create a big poster, depending on the size you input. Now I've been looking at the OBEY art, (google image obey art, its awesome) and so I put it through the Posterazor program and even bought fancy paper to print it on. but when i printed it, the quality was terrible and the image was very pixelated. (also the colors weren't as vibrant and they came out weird on the glossy paper). So I found Vectormagic.com. which traces my pictures into vector images, and allows me to zoom in as much as possible. Then, i thought I'd be able to download it to my computer and put it onto Posterazor and I would have not pixelated images. But when I try to put it onto Posterazor, it says "DualityofHumanity.eps" could not be loaded. this is because Posterazor only supports ---- BMP, DDS, Dr. Halo, GIF, ICO, IFF, JBIG, JPEG/JIF, KOALA, LBM, Kodak PhotoCD, PCX, PBM, PGM, PNG, PPM, PhotoShop PSD, Sun RAS, TARGA, TIFF, WBMP, XBM, XPM ---. And Vectormagic.com only lets me download the images into EPS, SVG, & PDF files. is it possible to convert my EPS, SVG or PDF files into ones that i can use on Posterazor, without the images becoming pixelated. or is there simply other solutions to this, perhaps a different poster making program? please help! and please explain it like your explaining it to a stupid person because Im not the greatest at computers and all the different forms of files. PS i have a mac... & are there any tips on printing for maximum quality. are their special paper and color settings i need to set? i have a wireless cannon MP560 THANK YOU!
How to make and print an A2 poster in Photoshop?
A2 is a standard international paper size, 420mm x 594mm (42cm x 59.4cm). From the Presets list choose custom so you can enter these dimensions for a new document. If you're resizing an existing document go to Image>Canvas Size to increase the document area so you adjust the layout. Or you can go to Image>Image Size to scale the document and content but be aware if you are increasing items on your page significantly they may lose quality. You can save in pdf format by going to File>Save as and selecting pdf format.
How much does it cost a company with a high-speed printer to print each copy of an 8.5x11 sheet of paper?
You have to check with the vendor and/or manufacturer of the equipment. Usually in their sales brochures and equipment specifications will state the average cost per sheet of output.
I have an 8.5X11 single page file that I want to blow up and print across multiple 11X17 pages to make a poster. What is the best way to do that?
Convert your file to a PDF.Open the PDF in Acrobat 9 or higher.Set the page setup to 11x 17In the print dialog box is the ability to poster print after you set what percentage you want to enlarge it. You can also set the amount of over lap for each section. a 1/2″ is good. Spread them all out on a table and match the overlaps and tape together then trim clean.
How big is 11 x 14 for a poster?
Seems like you want to know how large a poster should be, in relation to how large your new poster is. The answer: posters are usually much larger. The US standard size is 24x36 (inches, that is). Street posters are usually larger at 36x50. 11x17 is standard for a poster/flyer for a band performance or similar event poster. Your poster is smaller than that, about the size of a magazine laid open.
How big is 17" in a poster?
Regular paper for a computer printer is 8.5 by 11 inches. 17 inches is twice as big as 8.5. So it's twice as high as a sheet of paper is wide.
When would you use an 11 x 17 paper size?
When would you use an 11 x 17 paper size?Other than the obvious of printing something larger than letter, legal, it often is used for making "newspapers". 11" x 17" is also known as ledger or tabloid, which infers it's use in newspapers. 11" x 17" is exactly double of a standard 8.5" x 11" sheet used in the USA. So folding it in half makes for a 4 page document of standard 8.5" x 11" with no risk of the user losing one of the pages. (e.g.: one side is page 1 & 4, the other side is page 2 & 3.)
Poster dimensions?
You want to copy a poster whose dimensions are 24 inches by 30 inches onto a piece of paper 8.5 inches by 11 inches. You want the image to be as large as possible, but maintain the proportions of the original poster. What scaling factor will you use? Please show me how you did the problem..
How do professional printers print large banners with seemingly high resolution?
Look at this photo.Is this a normal deskjet printing an 8.5x11 photo, or a wide format poster printer printing a 24x36 photo?It may not be obvious until you compare the size of the wheels to the page, etc. It is a 24″ wide printer. My point is that large banners and posters and museum prints are printed on absolutely normal inkjets, just huge ones. The paper/canvas/vinyl is loaded in rolls, not sheets, so the printer above could print 24″x1″ or 24″x100 feet.How much memory would such a beast have to have to print a 2400 dpi banner that’s 100 feet long? As with perhaps all inkjets, only one stripe is loaded into memory at a time. So it doesn’t need any more memory than your home inkjet! Technology is neat, isn’t it?!The last thing to point out is that the “seemingly high resolution” is indeed only seemingly. The portrait in the above image is surely only 10 or 15 megapixels, so let’s say it’s 4200x2800, a standard professional 12 megapixel photo. So the 24″ side is 2800/24=117 dpi. You’d be amazed how forgiving your eye is. For proof, think of a fancy digital movie you see at a theater, which is 1920x1080 divided by… 30 feet… therefore 5.3 dpi? And you went home telling everyone how flawless the CG was? How forgiving your eye is is a gigantic factor in your question. On 8.5x11 you’ll notice if it’s under 250 dpi, but probably not over, and on a movie poster you won’t notice if the photos is only 117 dpi (if it’s enlarged to blur and not to pixilate.)
