European conferences may request 100 × 70 cm. Always verify your specific conference requirements in the conference handbook or presentation guidelines before ordering. If your conference uses non-standard sizes, we can accommodate custom dimensions.

We verify: resolution is sufficient (300 DPI minimum), dimensions match your order, colour profile is correct (RGB for screen, CMYK for print – we convert automatically), fonts are embedded, and images aren’t pixelated. If we identify any issues, we’ll contact you via email or phone before proceeding with printing.
