A-Frame Material

A-frame signs are digitally printed on a 4 mm corrugated plastic material. The material has hollow flutes similar to cardboard. The material is lightweight and waterproof. The frame can hold (1) or (2) 36" x 24" printed graphics. Signs are available with a 1/2" white margin or a full bleed. Full bleed signs have the color go all the way to the edge of the sign. If you would like to print double-sided on your signs, please contact a customer service representative.

Artwork

Please note that there is a 1/2" white border around single-sided yard signs. If you want a full bleed (color printed to the edge of the sign) there is an additional 20% cost per artwork file.

Design Methods

If you select "Pick a Template" or "Upload a File," you will be taken into the online designer where you can add a background image, upload clip art images, add text, and upload your own graphics. If you want us to design the artwork, choose "Let Us Design" and a pop-up window will appear where you can upload any logos or images and provide special instructions.

Artwork Guidelines

For complete guidelines, please visit the artwork specifications page.

Files that print best are .eps converted to outline. We can also print high resolution .pdf, .tif, and .jpg formats. Typically 300 dpi or higher is suitable for banners.

We print in four color CMYK or six color CMYK, LC, LM. Please keep this in mind when submitting files for printing as color tone shifting may happen if file is submitted in RGB format. If there is a specific PMS color you need, please specify that to us when submitting your order so we can help you verify that the proper color mix is used (vector artwork only).

Customer supplied files are printed as submitted, so we cannot guarantee color, clarity or final output since we are printing only the supplied files and have not set them up for printing.

All of our printers are calibrated daily to ICC coloring profile standards to ensure accurate color production.

Artwork Proofs

During the checkout process, you can choose to have your artwork go straight into production after payment is received* or have an artwork proof emailed to you. The proof will include a low-resolution image of your artwork, a summary of your order, pricing information, and your billing and shipping information. If you select an additional proof, you will have to email or call the customer service representative back with approval before your order will go into production.

*We review all artwork before putting it into production. If we notice that the quality of your artwork is too low for production, we will email you even if you didn't select the additional artwork proof.
