Sizing & Image Preparation
Each frame is precisely built to your chosen dimensions, ensuring your framed photo prints fit perfectly. The price includes a premium poster paper print, with upgrades to cotton canvas or fine art paper available for an additional fee. This ensures your artwork arrives ready to hang, exactly as you envisioned.
- Please provide your print size in inches (e.g., 8″×10″), and we’ll craft your chosen frame to fit it perfectly.
- Image Selection: Upload your own photo or design, or choose an image from Adobe Stock, Unsplash.com, Pexels.com, or any authorized source. Regardless of the source, we’ll transform it into a professional-quality custom framed photo or artwork.
- We accept various file formats, including PDF, JPG, AI, PNG, EPS, and TIF.
Recommended Resolutions:
Higher-resolution images produce clearer details and richer colours, ensuring a professional result across all our framed prints.
To guarantee the highest quality print, we strongly recommend a standard resolution of 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) for all submitted files, regardless of your chosen material (posters, cotton cloth canvas, or fine art photo paper).
Recommended pixel resolution (at 300 DPI)
- Small (e.g., 11 x 17 inches): 3,300 x 5,100 pixels
- Medium (e.g., 18 x 24 inches): 5,400 x 7,200 pixels
- Large (e.g., 24 x 36 inches): 7,200 x 10,800 pixels
- Extra-Large (e.g., 36 x 48 inches): 10,800 x 14,400 pixels

- If your file is too large to upload, compress it into a ZIP or use a file-sharing service like Google Drive or WeTransfer, then email the link or file to info@imaprestige.com. Include your name and order number for quick processing.
- Colour Accuracy: Please note that screen colours may vary slightly from the printed version.
Materials & Printing Technology for Ready-to-Hang Framed Prints
All our framed prints come with the frame itself, a sturdy backboard of 3 mm or 5 mm depending on the size, picture hangers, and with quality poster paper, so your artwork arrives ready to hang. Frames sized 8″×10″ and smaller include a stylish easel back for tabletop display.
- Our frames are made from high-grade polymer, giving them a striking finish that enhances any image. The smooth surface of the frame not only adds elegance but also ensures durability for years to come.
We offer two types of premium paper and a cotton cloth canvas for your framed prints:
- 9 mil Glossy Poster Paper – A high-quality, vibrant paper ideal for bold, eye-catching prints.
- Cotton Cloth Canvas – Crafted from durable, heavy-duty cotton fibers with a plain weave for added strength and a classic, textured finish.
- Premium Fine Art Epson Luster Photo Paper – Featuring a 10 mil thickness and 260 gsm weight, its Luster E finish offers a semi-gloss look with low glare, delivering vibrant colours and deep blacks. Perfect for portraits, weddings, and fine art prints, the Luster finish strikes the ideal balance between glossy and matte.
Acrylic Glass and Mat – both are optional upgrade for an additional fee.
- Acrylic Glazing – A shatter-resistant, lightweight alternative to glass. At 1 mm thick, it protects your artwork from dust and scratches while providing high clarity.
- Mat – A mat enhances depth and adds a refined, sophisticated touch. This option is only available when paired with acrylic glazing. If no instructions are provided, we will include a 1-inch mat around the image by default. You can request a different width in the “comment” section for your custom framed prints.
Our advanced printing process uses optimizer ink, delivering vivid, long-lasting colours while adding a protective layer to your artwork.
