How Much does a sign cost?

There is no such thing a standard price as almost everything we make is custom, but we guarantee to give the best price and service to meet your needs.

What are acceptable formats for making signs?

We need the highest possible quality input from you to provide the optimum level of signage we can return to you. We use cutting-edge hardware and software to ensure our quality is superior. We need True-Size, vector images that are typically produced by Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop and/or high-resolution images from a digital camera or similarly produced material. We can’t produce better resolution than what we get without added design, treatment or graphic editing charges. Here’s the details:

For digital printing from Photoshop, we need extensions .psd or .eps. If we need to manipulate or treat the data, we need .psd with layers and all fonts must be rasterized.

All files in .eps or .ai must be in outline or path form.

The resolution is the key to your sign’s image! We need a minimum of 150 dpi (dots per inch) at 100% of the file size.

Vinyl banners and signs require a vector file (Adobe Illustrator (.ai or .eps) or a cadlink (.cdl) file. The file must be native vector file, not a re-sized bitmap (.jpeg, .tiff, .pdf, .bmp, .gif) file.

We can’t accept the following formats for digital printing:. doc, .ppt, .gif  We will use jpegs only if they are the highest quality, first generation files with baseline optimized.
