Your Choice of Quality Papers & Finish
Foamboard signs start with a print on paper, which is then permanently mounted to foamcore board.
For best price, choose Economy Poster Paper. For higher end results, choose from our many photo/art paper options - from satin or gloss photo paper, to high end specialty papers like metallic photo paper.
Your Choice of Board Size/Color
3/16" White 1/2" White 3/16" Black 1/2" Black
Framing your print? If you are self framing your print, it is highly recommended that you mount it on 3/16" white foam core. This
prevents your print from developing waves over time as a result of humidity and gravity.

Preparing Your Files for Print
| DIGITAL CAMERA PHOTOS | ALL IMAGES | AI, PDF, PSD | COLOR ADJUSTMENTS |
| We do not recommend the economy poster option for printing of photographs. Please see Photo & Art Prints or Canvas Prints for digital photo printing. | - • Economy posters always include about a 1/4" white margin around the edge of the print. Any borders included in your image will be printed in addition to this default margin. For borderless printing see Photo & Art Prints
- • Margins or crop marks in your file WILL be in your print.
| - • Don't leave transparencies where you want white background - fill them with white. Our image processor sees transparency on the edges of a PDF file as margin to crop out, and can reduce the printed area of your image as a result.
- • DO choose to "embed fonts" when you save out your print ready file - otherwise we may not have the font you used, and our system will replace it with a generic font that you probably won't like.
| Make all color adjustments before uploading your file. We do NOT adjust color - we assume you have the color the way you want it in your image. We also do not reprint on color alone. |
