Poster-format artwork, and the one collection here designed to leave the screen. That changes what matters: for print, resolution requirements are far higher than for any display, and getting this wrong is expensive in a way that a bad wallpaper is not.
Print resolution, honestly explained
A screen needs roughly 100 pixels per inch. Print wants 300. That means an image which looks flawless on a 4K monitor can be far too small for a poster, and the maths is worth doing before you pay a print shop:
- A4 (21x30cm) — around 2480x3508 pixels at 300 DPI
- A3 (30x42cm) — around 3508x4961 pixels
- A2 (42x59cm) — around 4961x7016 pixels
Every page lists exact pixel dimensions. Divide by 300 to get the largest print size in inches that will look sharp. A 3840x2160 image — a perfectly good 4K wallpaper — prints properly at about 12x7 inches, which is smaller than A4.
When the file is too small
Our free AI upscaler will take an image to 4K or 8K, and for print that is a genuinely useful step rather than a cosmetic one — it reconstructs detail rather than simply enlarging pixels. It is free, needs no account and applies no watermark.
Colour will shift
Screens emit light; paper reflects it. Saturated colours — particularly bright blues, greens and neons — cannot be reproduced in CMYK ink and will print duller than they appear on your monitor. This is a property of the process, not a fault in the file. Images built on muted palettes, black and white, or line work translate to paper far more predictably.
Frequently asked questions
What resolution do I need to print a poster?
About 300 pixels per inch. A4 needs roughly 2480x3508, A3 around 3508x4961, A2 around 4961x7016. Divide the pixel dimensions listed on the page by 300 to get the largest sharp print size in inches.
Why do my printed colours look duller than on screen?
Screens emit light and paper reflects it, and saturated blues, greens and neons cannot be reproduced in CMYK ink. It is a property of printing, not a fault in the file. Muted palettes and line work translate far more predictably.
Can I sell posters printed from these?
You can use them commercially under our licence, but you cannot sell the files themselves, and any recognisable character, brand or person in an image carries rights we cannot grant. For a print you intend to sell, check what is actually in the frame.
