Description
Yard Signs are printed in full color on rigid 4mm corrugated plastic and are available in sizes ranging from 12" x 12" to 48" x 46". With printing on either one or both sides, Yard Signs can be oriented in landscape or portrait.
Utilize the vertical flutes (almost always a landscape orientation) to allow H-Wire and Beefy Stakes to be inserted into the bottom of the sign. Yard Signs can also be ordered with grommets for hanging either indoors or outdoors. Yard Signs do not include stakes. To order Yard Signs with Stakes, select Yard Signs with Stakes from the "Large Format" dropdown menu.
Note: Because of the wide potential size range of our large format products, there are additional file setup considerations. For details, please review the file setup section carefully.
Recommendation
The most common order options are 24" x 18" on 4mm White Corrugated Plastic. Almost always, Yard Signs are printed in full color on both sides (4/4) and are supported by H-Wire stakes.
To order additional Yard Sign Stakes, please check out our Yard Sign Stakes under Large Format.
File Preparation
In order to ensure your files are print-ready, we recommend that you upload them in PDF format. When you generate a print-ready PDF, your computer will use the settings in Adobe Acrobat Distiller or any other PDF generating programs you may use. Please make sure that these are set properly before generating your PDF file.
If you are uploading PDF files created in Photoshop, please be sure all layers are flattened.
We also accept .JPG (JPEG), .EPS and .TIF (TIFF) file types, however PDF is the preferred format.
Check your file to make sure it meets our file creation guidelines. This will help speed up the production of your project and give your printed piece the best results.
-
Use the CMYK colorspace (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, blacK). These are industry standard printing colors. CMYK colors are different than RGB (Red, Green, Blue), which are used to display colors on your screen.
-
Use a minimum resolution of 150 dpi at 100% size for image files.
-
Specify trim area with crop marks. (Don't place crop marks inside the work area.)
-
Artwork should have 1/8" (0.125") bleed extending past the trim line. This is to prevent minor cutting variations from leaving unintended results at the trim edge.
-
Safe Area is the 1/4" (0.25") area inside the trim line. Do not put critical information or images within the Safe Area. This is to prevent minor cutting variations from leaving unintended results at the trim edge.
-
If you want printed borders, they must be placed a minimum of 1/8" (0.125") inside the trim line and include bleed. This is to prevent minor cutting variations from leaving unintended results at the trim edge.
