PHOTO AND ARTWORK FILE REQUIREMENTS

We strongly recommend that all customer-uploaded photos and files meet the following quality standards to ensure the best possible print results:

High-Resolution Images: Photos should have at least 300 DPIs at a 1:1 ratio (100%) to prevent pixelation, blurriness, or distortion. Low-resolution images may result in poor print quality, for which Print STL is not responsible. While we reserve the right to reject low-quality images, we do not guarantee verification of every file.

Clear & Well-Lit Photos: For best results, upload high-quality, professionally taken photos or clear smartphone images with good lighting. Avoid blurry, overly filtered, or heavily compressed images, as they may not print well.

Uncropped, Full-Frame Photos: Ensure the person or object is fully visible in the image with no essential parts cut off. Photos that are too tightly cropped may not fit well within the design.

No Screenshots or Social Media Downloads: Photos taken from social media (such as Facebook, Instagram, or screenshots) are often compressed and may appear pixelated when printed. Always upload the original, high-resolution file for the best results.

Avoid Photos of Photos: Please do not take a picture of a printed photo and upload it. This often results in glare, distortion, shadows, and loss of quality, making the final print look poor. If the original digital file is unavailable, consider scanning the printed photo at 300 DPI or higher for a clearer result.

RGB Color Profile: Images should be uploaded in RGB color mode without an embedded color profile. If a file is uploaded in CMYK or another format, it will be converted automatically, which may cause color shifts. Print STL is not responsible for any discrepancies caused by this conversion.

By following these guidelines, you can ensure your event design appears crisp, vibrant, and professional in print.
