|
| TERMS
YOU NEED TO KNOW: |
| IMAGE
RESOLUTION: This is a relative term to describe
the quality of the image. Most times the resolution
is described in pixels and dpi. Better resolution
images make better output prints. |
| BMP,
GIF, TIF, JPG, EPS: These are graphic file
types. Each one was developed for a specific
purpose. The lowest resolution formats are bmp,
gif and jpg. The highest resolution formats
are TIF and EPS. EPS is especially good because
it makes the image into vector format which
allows us to rescale the image to any size without
reduction in image quality. |
| SOURCE
IMAGE: This is the picture or lettering
file you provide to us. It can be in almost
any file format, but Photoshop EPS or uncompressed
TIF format works best for prints. |
| PIXELS:
Every image is made from tiny specs of light
which are called pixels. The size of the image
is measured by pixels. Graphics seen on computer
screens are a maximum of 600 pixels wide for
most screens. In order for us to print, we need
at least twice that size. |
| DPI:
(Dots Per Inch) This is the printer's measurement
of the quality of your image. The higher DPI
means crisper cleaner pictures. However, bad
source images will make even worse prints no
matter what dpi settings are used. Our equipment
can print between 400 and 1440 dpi |
| OUTPUT
PRINT: This is the full color printed product
that we produce. It can be printed on white
and clear for some products. It can be a full
color picture, or a multicolor logo or lettering.
The output from our machines can be up to 60"
wide and unlimited length. We offer perforated
window film (see through back window mural material)
for some products. |
| STEP
2: MEASURE YOUR VEHICLE OR INSTALL LOCATION |
| Before
we can give you an exact price for your job,
we need to know the size of the print and the
quantity you require. You will need to give
us dimensions in inches (in) for the height
(up and down) and width (left to right). Your
source image must be roughly the same scale
as the dimensions you request. All of our products
are custom made to order, so there are no refunds,
exchanges or returns on any of our products.
Be sure of the sizing before you place an order.
We will not have specific car or truck dimensions.
You must measure it for your vehicle or installation
area exactly. |
