banner.

A CMYK PDF at the exact width and height you chose (the page is that size — trim equals the media box). Raster art is converted to CMYK; colors may shift slightly from what you see on screen. Vector PDFs are placed as vector, not flattened. SVG is converted to CMYK vector. Nothing is upsampled.

A retractable stand hides part of the print: 1 inch under the top rail, and 3 inches in the base (or 6 inches on a premium / adjustable stand). Those bands are reserved inside the file you asked for — the PDF stays exactly 33×80, for example. Artwork still runs edge to edge through them. Turn on “My printer wants extra length” only if your shop wants those hide amounts added to the file height. Then we name both sizes, e.g. visible 33×80, file 33×84. We never add length silently.

33×80 is the usual US retractable. We also have 24×80 slim, 36×92 premium tall, 48×80 wide, and a tabletop 11.75×17.5 (A3). Some shops sell 33×81 or 33.5×80 — use Custom for those. There’s a one-click 85×200 cm starter (a common metric size) in Custom too. Width can be 8–60 in, height 11–96 in.

For photos and other rasters we show the effective PPI at the final print size: 100+ is great, 60–100 is okay for banner viewing distance, under 60 may look soft. Vector PDF and SVG stay sharp at any size. We never upsample a raster in the PDF — a small file stays a small file.

PDF, SVG, PNG, JPG, or TIFF, up to 150 MB. A PDF page is placed as vector (not rasterized). SVG stays vector and is converted to CMYK. Use Fill (default) to crop the art so it covers the banner, or Fit to see the whole graphic on a background color. Drag to reposition and use the zoom slider. If the aspect ratio doesn’t match, we’ll say so.

Yes. Open Add QR code, paste a URL or short text, and place it on the banner. It’s a true vector code in the print file, so it stays sharp. It sits in the visible safe area (not in the hidden bands), has a white quiet zone on by default, and can be any color (black is the default). We’ll warn you if it’s under about 3 inches — that’s hard to scan from a few feet away.

Yes. Download preview JPG is free — no payment or email. It’s a low-resolution, watermarked image, not for print. Send this preview to your client for approval, then buy the final print file once they sign off.

$9.99 for a standard 33×80, a 24×80 slim, or the tabletop 11.75×17.5. $12.99 for a 36×92 premium tall, a 48×80 wide, or any custom size. Plus applicable sales tax. Turning on extra length for your printer doesn’t change the price — it’s based on the visible size you pick.

All sales are final after the PDF is downloaded — no refunds. If the file itself is broken or won’t open, contact us and we’ll replace it. You can preview the whole banner for free before you pay.
