Printing

How To Order Your Print

• Fill out a Print Request Form and submit it and your project as a high quality PDF 48 hours in advance to the studio staff, either in person or via email to creativestudio@miami.edu
• All print orders must be sized by the patron to the desired dimensions (Example: 22×44 inches)
• Pick up your print at the agreed time. Turn around time is normally 24-48 hours. Please speak to our staff for an estimate as turnaround times change depending on the point in the semester.

Poster Creation Tips

• Create your poster in the actual size you require.
• Use full size images (at least 100 dpi, but 300 dpi will look much better).
• If possible, avoid compressed formats, like jpg, which are more likely to lose quality.
• When using MS PowerPoint, turn on the Ruler option under Design-Page Setup to adjust the size of your slide.
• Save your final document as a PDF.
