“When I initially ordered the poster, I clicked on a picture of a poster for a birthday with a pattern, but when I received it, the sign was plain white with writing and a picture. Not the poster that was shown on the page. Very disappointed when I received the poster. Paid a lot for a plain piece of cardboard with some writing on it.”

“Not real happy with the color change on the prints. They have a gold tint to them for some reason. I also wish they would have sent them flat instead of rolled up on a tube. Going to be hard to place on a matt without wrinkles.”

Q:
Are cardstock posters able to be written on easily?
Asked 7 months ago by Rachel L.
A:

Yes. If you want to write something permanent to cardstock. That can be easily done. Make sure to dry it first to make sure it does not smudge.

Q:
What are your cardstock posters made of?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Our cardstock posters are made out of a durable, 24pt cardstock that is pliable enough to be rolled up yet rigid enough to stand up against an easel. Their lightweight form factor makes them ideal for use in presentations on the go. Unlike the printed movie or celebrity posters you find at a retail store, these large cardstock prints are made of a thicker material that is more durable and lasts longer. In addition, the UV ink printing process will leave a semi-gloss sheen as opposed to the high-gloss finish usually seen on other posters.

If you are looking for a more traditional poster, we now offer standard posters in two different finishes: glossy and matte. We also have mounted posters for an even longer-lasting rigid poster.

Q:
Can I create my cardstock poster to have a different shape than just rectangular or square?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Absolutely! Cardstock posters give you the ability to select between multiple shape options for your large print including: square/rectangle, rounded corners (¼" or 1" radius), circle/oval, custom (previously known as or sometimes referred to as contour), or custom with border (previously known as or sometimes referred to as halo). Simply select which option you prefer in the quick start options menu or in the design tool!

Q:
How thick are cardstock poster? Do you offer different thickness options?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Our 24 point cardstock posters measure .024" thick, which is about the thickness of 6 sheets of copy paper. These are thicker and more durable than the posters you find at retail stores, with a semi-gloss finish, as opposed to the high-gloss of celebrity posters.
Q:
How durable is the poster? Will cardstock signs bend?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Our cardstock posters are durable enough to stand up by themselves against an easel or similar display, but they can still be rolled up when you need to transport them. To make sure your poster continues to last, it is important not to bend or crease them in any way, as doing so will damage your poster. If you are looking for a more rigid material, consider opting for a mounted poster.

Q:
What sizes do you offer? What is the maximum and minimum size you offer?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Our large cardstock prints can be ordered to any custom size as small as 4"x4" and as large as 94"x46".

Q:
What are some common or standard poster sizes?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:
Many of our customers order posters sized at 18"x24". Other popular sizes include 11"x17", 18"x30", 20"x20", 24"x36", 30"x65" and sizes up to 46"x90". While common sizes are quite useful, cardstock poster printing at Signs.com allows you to order nearly any sizes you desire.
Q:
My design is really detailed and contains a number of colors. Will this increase my cost?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Nope! All of our posters are printed using a 4-color, CMYK process, so whether your design has one color or one hundred colors, you won’t be charged any extra!

Q:
Is it possible to make my cardstock sign double sided?
Asked 2 years ago by Signs
A:

Absolutely, all of our posters can be printed on both sides if desired. In the design tool, under “Options,” select “Two Sides Same” if you’d like your cardstock print to have the same design on both sides, or “Two Sides Different” to upload or create separate designs for each side.
