Poster Printing & Specialty Ink FAQ

What's the difference between your 5th color and white ink printing?

We offer two distinct specialty printing technologies depending on your poster size:

5th Color Digital Printing (Sizes 12x18 and smaller): Adds a fifth color (Metallic Gold/Silver, Neon Pink/Yellow, Invisible Red/UV, or Spot Clear Gloss) to standard CMYK. These inks create visual effects—shimmer, fluorescence, hidden UV elements—that make your posters stand out.

UV Printing with White Ink (Sizes 18x24 and larger): Our UV printer can deposit white ink as an underbase or standalone color. This allows printing on colored or transparent materials, creating opaque highlights, and reverse-printing on clear substrates for protected displays.

Both technologies offer unique advantages. Contact us to discuss which is right for your project.

Can I get metallic or neon inks on large posters (24x36)?

Our 5th color metallic and neon inks are only available on sizes 12x18 and smaller(including 8.5x11, 11x17, and 12x24). For larger formats (18x24, 19x27, 24x36), we offer UV printing with white ink capabilities but not metallic or neon spot colors. If you need metallic effects on larger formats, we can discuss alternative approaches like printing on metallic paper stocks. Contact us to explore options for your specific size requirements.

What is 100# Gloss Text paper, and is it suitable for framing?

100# Gloss Text is a premium, coated paper stock that's thicker and more durable than standard poster paper. Its glossy finish provides exceptional color vibrancy. While perfect for temporary displays, push-pin mounting, or lightweight framing, it is not a rigid board. For professional framing or rigid displays, we recommend adding mounting services to foam core, Gatorboard, or sintra (available by custom quote ).

When would I need double-sided (4/4) printing?

Choose double-sided printing when your poster will be:

• Hanging in a walkway or window where both sides are visible
• Used as a countertop sign or table tent
• Part of a rotating display
• A two-part design where you want different messages front/back

Double-sided printing effectively gives you two posters in one, maximizing your display options. Both 5th color and UV printing can accommodate double-sided projects (with appropriate custom quotes).

Can I get my posters laminated or mounted?

Yes, as a custom service.

• Lamination adds a protective plastic layer that increases durability, water resistance, and makes colors more vibrant (gloss) or eliminates glare (matte).
• Mounting involves adhering your poster to a rigid foam core, Gatorboard, or sintra, creating a sturdy, ready-to-hang sign that won't curl or bend.

Request a quote and specify your finishing needs.

What's the largest poster size you offer?

Our standard largest size is 24" x 36", which is ideal for most retail, event, and trade show applications. For larger formats like banner or billboard sizes, we specialize in custom large-format printing with our UV printer. Contact us directly to discuss your project requirements for prints larger than 24x36 inches, including custom sizes and substrates.

What file specs do you require for 5th color or white ink printing?

We require print-ready PDFs with all fonts embedded. For specialty printing:

• 5th Color (Metallic/Neon/UV): Files must include spot color separations for each specialty ink, with layers clearly labeled.
• White Ink: Files must include a white ink layer indicating where white should print (underbase, highlights, or standalone).
• Standard CMYK: Images should be at least 150 DPI at the final print size(e.g., a 24"x36" poster needs image files that are 3600x5400 pixels at 150 DPI).
• Bleed: Always include a 0.125" bleed if your design goes to the edge.

Our design team can help you prepare files for specialty printing. Contact us for guidance.

How do you ship posters to prevent damage?

We take great care in packaging. Posters are placed in clear plastic sleeves for protection, then shipped flat in sturdy, rigid cardboard mailers or reinforced tubes (for larger sizes), depending on what provides the safest transit. We avoid folding standard posters to ensure they arrive display-ready. For mounted posters, we use custom box packaging with protective corner supports.

What's the typical turnaround time for specialty poster orders?

Standard production: 5-7 business days after final proof approval
Rush printing: 2-3 business days available for most sizes (additional fee)
5th color specialty inks: May add 1-2 business days to production
White ink printing: Standard timeline, no additional delay
Mounted or laminated posters: May add 2-3 business days
Backlit displays: Custom timeline based on frame requirements

Timelines are provided with your custom quote.

• Create designs specifically for metallic, neon, or UV effects on smaller formats
• Design for white ink printing on colored or transparent materials
