Are you planning on printing a photo on canvas? The photo canvas is a great combination of old fashioned artist canvas and modern digital printing. When printing a photo canvas there are 5 important points to remember.
1. Choosing your photo canvas printer is very important to successfully printing a high-quality canvas. Be sure that your printer is experienced in canvas printing. Many experienced printers will offer a money back guarantee or a satisfaction guarantee to show that they are trustworthy. Compare prices from both local print shops and online printers, but don’t forget to factor in taxes, shipping and handling charges.
2. Make sure that your photo canvas is coated with a protective finish to prevent cracking and scratching. If your printer does not offer a protective coating, choose another printer. A coated photo canvas will have a satin finish and last much longer. All gallery wrapped photo canvas prints should come coated, but always ask your printer to be sure. If your canvas is not coated before stretching, it will not last very long. There are normally 3 coating options: matte, satin and gloss. Each coating differs by the amount if shine they give off, but are all equally effective at protecting your print.
3. Use high resolution images or professional quality photos. If your image quality drops below 100 dpi, your photo canvas will turn out blurry. Always ask your printer to check your file for quality before printing. Also, be sure that your image is in the right proportion to the print size. If you are supplying an image that has a size ration of 3:4 and ordering a square print, cropping or image distortion is inevitable. Your printer should offer you’re a proofing option so that there will be no mistakes made when it comes to printing your photo canvas.
4. Avoid using a photo with common photography mistakes such as “red eyes”, dim lighting, blurriness, view obstruction or bad framing. If you are set on a photo with some of these photography problems, you might be able to fix them using photo editing software. Seek the aid of your printers design team so that you receive the best possible results.
5. Choose a timeless picture. Avoid seasonal or trendy pictures, because you may tire of them quickly. A photo canvas should last a lifetime if treated properly. Family portraits or photos of meaningful events such as a wedding or graduation make the best candidates when printing a photo on canvas. Also, consider printing multiple copies of special events to give as gifts!
Following these 5 tips will help your photo canvas project be a great success! A well thought out canvas print will be the highlight of your home and a creative way to preserve good memories. Share your memories with others, decorate y our home and give thoughtful gifts with a beautiful photo canvas.
