  16. 16. NOTE: The numbers generated from this calculator are only a size estimation and are not a guarantee of print quality. The only way to get a guarantee of quality is to have us manually inspect your images. Also, the information you enter must be the native sizes / numbers of your image. Scaling up & resizing a small / low DPI image in a program like Photoshop to be bigger does nothing to make the images print quality better. Disclaimer

  18. 18. DPI = Dots Per Inch More dots per inch (DPI) means that theres more detail and helps to create higher resolution in your image. Our max print on fabric is 200 DPI, but an image with a DPI higher than that is still helpful! A larger DPI can allow for a larger image panel. DPI DPI More Dots = More Detail
  19. 19. 4800px 2400px 300dpi Large Dimensions + Large DPI = Large Panels DPI isnt the only thing that determines resolution though, your images pixel width and height are just as important! The bigger the image is, the easier it is to put on a large panel.
  20. 20. Vector Graphics Vector graphics are computer generated images that are made from lines and points. There are no pixels in a vector and because of that the image will have the same quality at any size. Vectors are ideal for logos and extremely large scale prints. Though regular graphics can work for those too.
