FAQs

What is Giclée Printing?

A Giclée print is a high-quality printing method used to reproduce fine art and photographs. It involves using archival-quality inks and specialized printers to create museum-quality prints with exceptional detail and color accuracy.

Each print using this method is made up of thousands of small ink particles that build up to produce a print, using the halftone technique that simulates continuous-tone imagery through the use of dots, varying either in size or in spacing, thus generating a gradient-like effect.

What types of artwork do you print?

We specialize in printing fine art and photographs for artists and photographers. Our services include printing paintings, illustrations, photographs, digital art, and more.

What file type does my print need to be?

We can print your artwork to any size from the following three file types TIFF, JPEG and PDF. If your file is not one of these formats you’ll need to convert the file before uploading to place your order.
