Druk grafiki reklamowej z plikami PDF.
Large-format digital printing offers an extensive product portfolio for many industries, from image advertising to permanent markings and decoration production. With the growing demand for high-quality prints, choosing the right file format is becoming a key element in the process of producing advertising graphics. In this context, the PDF vector file is considered the preferred format, which offers a number of advantages and makes it the optimal format for saving graphics intended for large-format digital printing.
Scalability without loss of quality.
One of the greatest advantages of vector PDF files is their ability to scale without losing quality. Vector files are based on mathematical formulas that define shapes and lines, which means they can be enlarged to any size without degrading image quality.
In large format printing, where large print sizes are required, maintaining sharpness and detail is key. Vector PDF files provide this lossless scalability, making them an ideal choice for these types of applications.
Example resolution for files containing rasterized graphics:
Outdoor banners: 72-120 dpi
Custom flags and feather flags: 72 dpi
Floor stickers and self-adhesive vinyl: 150 dpi
Rigid foamed PVC plates: 150 dpi
Wallpaper and large format posters: 120-150 dpi
Stickers, labels on a roll: 300 dpi
Colour precision and consistency.
For many printed projects, especially those related to brand promotion and visual identification, precise color reproduction is a required necessity. Vector PDF files allow you to maintain colour consistency regardless of print size. Thanks to the use of the CMYK color model (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black), these files are an ideal source for the production of large-format prints, ensuring faithful colour reproduction in accordance with ICC profiles and the designer’s intentions.
Preserving layers and transparency of graphic elements.
Large format designs often use multiple graphic layers to organize and separate different design elements. Vector PDF files have the ability to retain these layers, making your project easier to manage and adaptable to a variety of printing needs. Additionally, transparencies that are often used for special effects or transparent backgrounds are also preserved in vector PDF files, which translates into greater design flexibility.
Optimized and compressed file volume.
Compared to raster files, which can take up a lot of disk space due to their high resolution, vector PDF files are usually much smaller in size. This makes them easier to store, share and transmit, contributing to the efficiency of the design and printing process.
We also print from other file format types.
Vector PDF files are an ideal choice for large format printing due to their lossless scalability, colour precision, preservation of layers and transparency, and small file size. However, this is not the only format we accept for your project. Equally often, or as an alternative, we print from files saved as: TIF, JPG, PNG, PSD and EPS. Additionally, it is important that your file is optimized for the amount of data it contains.
For designers and large-format printing companies, using the PDF format can provide numerous benefits, including excellent print quality and efficiency in graphic design management. In today’s world, where image and quality are key success factors, choosing PDF vector files is becoming the obvious choice for professional large format printing.
