Scienceposters can also print your own posters from a variety of packages* - simply email your poster or send
using the file upload feature below this site and we will print the poster and return it to you via Royal Mail in a
cardboard tube.
We can print any poster from 36" (914mm) wide and almost as long as you like. However due to Royal Mail
restrictions we recommend making the poster no more than 84cm wide (if portrait) or high (if landscape) to
enable the poster to fit in the tube and be posted (Royal Mail do not allow packages >90cm to be sent Special
Delivery). For standard sizes see below
 
Key points of the services are:
Quick turnaround: Posters that are emailed for printing before 1pm are normally despatched the same
day.Posters are normally sent Royal Mail Special Delivery (next day before 1pm). Very urgent posters can be sent
Royal Mail Special Delivery before 9am for a small premium.
Photo-quality printing: Posters are printed on 210gsm satin photo-paper at 1200dpi (photo quality). The paper is smudge proof and produces superb
quality prints. We can also print onto a wrinkle-resistant fabric for easier transportation. An A0 poster is folded to A4 size and sent in a cardboard box.
Tissue paper is used to minimise smudging
Free proofing: Whilst we cannot guarantee that we will spot any mistakes/errors in your poster, if we do spot any obvious errors or problems we will
be happy to mail you prior to printing so you can amend the poster. This is all part of the service and is free. We have spotted many errors in our print-
only posters and have saved many an embarrassing moment for the presenter!
