Custom Poster Printing in Any Size, Finish, or Setting

Upload a photo, artwork, or event graphic and we print it as a custom poster. Choose heavyweight 190 GSM paper in glossy or satin for your walls, waterproof 14 mil PVC for outdoor promotions, or backlit film that glows in an LED frame. Sizes run from A4 up to 36x48, and most posters ship in protective tube packaging.

Overview

Which Custom Poster Is Right for You?

Every poster we print starts with your file. What changes is the material it lands on. Paper is the classic choice for rooms and offices, PVC stands up to rain and sun, and backlit film is made to be lit from behind. Pick the material first, then the size.

Photo-Quality Paper Posters

Our custom poster print uses 190 GSM heavyweight paper with fade-resistant inks, in glossy or satin.

Waterproof Outdoor Posters

The Double White UV Poster is 14 mil PVC with UV inks rated for 3 to 5 years outdoors.

Backlit Film Posters

Backlit film is made to be lit from behind, so colors glow in a light box or our NexaFrame LED poster frame.

Poster Types, Sizes, and Finishes

Most searches for poster printing come down to three questions: what size, what finish, and will it survive where you hang it. Here is the short version.

Standard US Poster Sizes

11x17, 18x24, and 24x36 cover most walls. 27x40 is the one-sheet movie poster size, and 36x48 is our largest paper poster.

A-Series Sizes

A4, A3, A2, A1, and A0 for international artwork and templates built in metric sizes.

Glossy Finish

A high-shine surface that makes colors pop. Best for photography and high-contrast images.

Satin Finish

Rich, deep color with less glare. Choose it for bright rooms or a more gallery-like look.

Matte Waterproof PVC

Non-glare 14 mil PVC with UV inks for posters that live outside or in wet areas.

Backlit Film

Translucent film for light boxes and LED frames, so the image glows instead of reflecting light.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the questions people ask most about custom poster printing.

What poster sizes can I order?

Our custom poster print comes in 11x17, 12x18, 16x20, 16x24, 18x24, 20x30, 22x28, 24x24, 24x36, 27x40, 30x40, and 36x48, plus A4, A3, A2, A1, and A0.

Is glossy or satin better for posters?

Glossy makes colors pop and suits photography and high-contrast art. Satin has rich color with less glare, so it reads better in bright rooms or behind light from a window. Both print on the same 190 GSM paper.

How much does a 24x36 poster cost?

A 24x36 custom poster print is $32.99 in glossy or satin. A 24x36 Double White UV waterproof poster is $27.99, and a 24x36 backlit film poster is $30.99.

Do you make waterproof posters for outdoor use?

Yes. The Double White UV Poster is printed on waterproof 14 mil PVC with UV inks that resist fading for 3 to 5 years outdoors. It needs no lamination.

What is a backlit poster?

A backlit poster is printed on translucent film designed to be lit from behind, like a movie theater display. Our backlit film poster fits the NexaFrame LED frame or any light box of the same size.

How fast will my poster ship?

Custom poster prints are produced in 1-2 business days, then rolled and shipped in protective tube packaging so they arrive without creases.

Can I print a poster from Canva or another design app?

Yes. Export your design as a high-resolution image or PDF at the size you plan to order, then upload it on the product page. Building the file at the final size keeps text and edges sharp.

What resolution should my photo be for a large poster?

The bigger the poster, the more pixels you need. Use the original photo from your camera or phone rather than a screenshot or social media download, which are compressed and can look soft at 24x36 and up.

Can I get a custom size poster?

Our listed sizes cover most frames. For an unusual size or very large outdoor graphics, contact us and we will tell you what is possible.
