Noppo Photo and Printing

1) Prepare your File

Save your file, we accept any format (PSD, TIF, JPEG, PDF, etc).
Some recommendations for better results, this is optional:
- Use AdobeRGB 1998 Colorspace if possible.
- Adjust your file to at least 240ppi. 300ppi is preferred.
- If you don't have the software to do all these changes I can do them for you.

2) Decide in which Size, Type of Media and Finish you want your print

Choose a size for your print, in inches.
We have a lot of different media available. Check our product and services page for available Media and Finish (if applicable) and choose.

3) Did you choose Canvas? then see this step, if not, jump to number 4

If you chose to have your image printed in Canvas, let us know:
- if you want the print only or if you want it stretched (framed)
- if framed, which thickness of frame: 0.75", 1.25" or 1.50"

If we are going to frame your image, remember that the Canvas has to be wrapped around the frame and the image could be affected, choose one of the following options:

a)
Your image is left intact on front and a portion of the image is mirrored on each side, so that the mirrored portion will be on the sides of the frame. We recommend this option.

b)
The image is slightly scaled to cover the sides of the frame.
Be aware that this way some front image is lost on the sides.

c)
The image is left intact on front of the frame and we add colored borders to be on the sides of the frame. The borders can be of any color of your choice.

4) Contact us to arrange File Delivery
