Digital Prints on Photographic Paper

  • Prints up to 8"x14" (larger print size see Large Prints)
  • Individually assessed machine prints
  • Gloss or matt; with or without white borders
  • Format - RGB - JPEG - 8-bit
  • From camera card; Zip; USB flash card; CD ( but not DVD )

Prints sizes range from 3.5x5 to 8x14 in discrete steps according to paper roll width: one of your print dimensions must be either 4, 5, 6, or 8 inches or the image will be enlarged to fill the paper. We print the whole image area so, for instance, if you have added special borders to your print area they will print normally, without being cropped out.

There are three common problems associated with ordering prints from digital files but with a little planning these can be easily managed.

Shape
If your image file is shaped in a 4:5 format then it will not fit a 4x6 print, or 5x7.5 etc. We can easily print 4x5 prints if that's what you would like, but it is not something we can guess and without instruction we make a 4x6 print, with the missing space made up of white border.
Size
like Goldilocks, it is best to make your file size 'just right' and guidance is provided in our reference page. Avoid files that are much too big as much as those which are too small.
Colour
Avoid the temptation of adjusting colour profiles unless you're very experienced. We inspect every image, making adjustments to make the best possible print, so strange colour profiles may adversely affect their quality: sRGB is recommended. If you would like us to print with no adjustment then make that instruction clear.
