Make your own banner, sign or poster at its real finished size — or check artwork you already have — and it reaches a Santa Clarita print shop as a job they can quote immediately, instead of a photo and a question.
Free, no account, and nothing is uploaded — your files never leave your browser.
A customer sends a logo off their phone. The shop opens it, works out it is 400 pixels wide, emails back asking for the original. Two days go by. Nobody has done anything wrong — there was just no way to know before sending.
This site removes that round trip. Check the file, see the honest answer about what size it prints at, fix it if it needs fixing, and send a spec with the numbers already in it.
Vinyl banners, rigid panels, coroplast, mesh — with the finishing a shop needs told up front: hems, grommets, pole pockets.
Door lettering, partial and full wraps, fleet markings. Sized in real inches against the panel you are putting them on.
Storefront graphics, frosted and perforated film, wall murals. Includes the bleed and mounting questions most people miss.
Retail posters, trade show panels, pull-up banners, foam board. Checked at the distance people will actually read them from.
Die-cut and kiss-cut, indoor and outdoor, laminated or bare. Contour cutting flagged in the spec so it gets quoted right.
Trace a raster logo to clean vector so it prints at any size, and catch the live text and hidden bitmaps that quietly wreck a print.
Make the artwork in the designer at the real finished size — text, your logo, colours — or drop a file you already have into the Studio.
Resolution is checked against the distance people will read it from, and the trim and safe lines show what gets cut off. A low-res logo is caught now, not after it is printed.
Size, material, bleed, finishing, quantity — assembled from what you built, so the shop is not guessing at any of it.
It goes to a print shop in your area with the file attached. They confirm price and turnaround before anything is produced.
No artwork yet? Build it here — a banner, yard sign, poster, decal or vehicle door, sized in real inches with your text and logo on it.
Find out whether it prints sharp at the size you want, vectorize a logo, and build a spec around it.
The 300 DPI rule comes from things you hold in your hand. The eye resolves detail to about one arcminute, so what a print actually needs is roughly 3438 ÷ viewing distance in inches:
| Held at arm's length (12 in) | 286 DPI |
| Read across a room (3 ft) | 95 DPI |
| Storefront, from the pavement (10 ft) | 29 DPI |
| Building wall (30 ft) | 10 DPI |
| Billboard from the road (50 ft) | 6 DPI |
Past those numbers the extra pixels are invisible — they only make the file slower to handle. Which means the file you already have is often fine, and the Studio will tell you so instead of upselling you.

Far fewer than 300. It depends on viewing distance — about 29 DPI at 10 feet, 95 DPI at 3 feet. The Studio works it out for your exact file and finished size.
A screen is about 100 pixels per inch, so a file can look perfect on a monitor and still be far too small at finished size. What matters is pixels divided by finished inches.
Nothing. Checking artwork, vectorizing a logo and building a spec are free, and your files never leave your browser. You only pay the shop that prints the job.
A real print shop in your area — wide-format printers, cutting tables, laminators, and a person you can call. They confirm price and turnaround before anything is produced. Find yours on the locations directory.
Your shop will. Worth knowing first: very saturated screen colours cannot be reproduced with process inks and will shift. The Studio flags artwork likely to shift so it is not a surprise.
