Best Paper Options for Poster Printing

Most posters rely heavily on visuals, so selecting the right paper is key for vibrant, attention-grabbing results. Glossy art paper delivers rich color saturation, sharp details, and strong contrast, making it ideal for full-color, image-heavy posters with minimal text. Matte art paper provides a smooth, non-reflective finish with a refined, elegant look, perfect for posters with more text or black-and-white designs.

For a natural, eco-friendly option, we also offer uncoated paper, which features a soft, organic texture and excellent writability while maintaining professional print quality.

Here’s a detailed recommendation for poster paper types and weights based on size:

8.5″ × 11″ to 18″ × 24″ Posters: Use 157–200gsm glossy or matte art paper. These weights provide good flexibility for smaller posters while ensuring vibrant colors and a professional finish. Glossy enhances color saturation for image-heavy designs, while matte offers a refined, non-reflective look.
24″ × 36″ Posters: Use 157gsm, 200gsm, or 250gsm glossy or matte art paper. Thicker paper adds durability and rigidity for larger posters, helping prevent curling or bending during handling and display.
27″ × 40″ to 36″ × 48″ Posters: Choose from 200gsm, 250gsm, 300gsm, 350gsm glossy art paper or 200gsm, 250gsm, 300gsm matte art paper. Heavier paper suitable for large-format displays.

Questions & Answers

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

Our minimum order quantity for poster printing usually starts at 100 pcs. The more you print, the cheaper the unit price.

What file format do you accept for printing?

We recommend high resolution(recommend 300 DPI for the sharpest result) PDF files with embedded fonts and images, including a 3 mm bleed. If your files are created in InDesign or Illustrator, please export them as print-ready PDFs.

Can I order a sample before ordering?

Yes! You can order a physical sample before placing an order to check our paper, finish and printing quality.

Do you provide proofing services?

Yes, we offer several proofing options, including PDF proof, physical sample, dummy sample, digital printed sample, and offset printed sample.

After you complete the deposit and before mass production, we usually provide a free digital printed sample for your confirmation.

If your poster includes Pantone colors or requires strict color accuracy, we recommend ordering an offset printed proof. Please note that offset proofs are not free; the cost depends on Pantone colors.

What's the pros of laminated poster?

Laminated posters offer many benefits, including:

Enhanced Durability – Protects against tearing, creasing, and everyday wear.
Water & Moisture Resistance – Suitable for humid environments or semi-outdoor use.
Fade Protection – Reduces color fading caused by light exposure.
Easy to Clean – Wipeable surface resists dust, fingerprints, and stains.
Stronger Structure – Adds thickness and rigidity for extended display life.
Premium Appearance – Available in matte, gloss, or soft-touch finishes for elevated visual appeal.

Laminated posters are ideal for long-term displays, high-traffic areas, and reusable promotional materials.

Do you offer scratch-off poster printing?

Yes, we offer custom scratch-off poster printing. Scratch-off posters are perfect for interactive promotions, event reveals, marketing campaigns, games, and fundraising activities. We provide high-quality printing with softer scratch-off coatings that conceal text or images securely while remaining easy to remove.

Do you provide custom packaging for my posters?

Flat packaging is the most cost-effective option for shipping and bulk distribution. Custom packaging, such as paper tubes or mailer boxes, offers better protection and a more premium presentation, but it will increase the overall cost due to additional materials, production and shipping.

Can you print custom sizes and finishes?

Absolutely. We support custom sizes, and premium finishes such as lamination, foil stamping, spot UV, and embossing to make your poster stand out.

Do you provide design or file setup support?

Yes, our prepress team offers free file checking to ensure your files are print-ready. We can also provide custom templates, and basic artwork guidance if needed.

How do I send files to you for poster printing?

For small files, you can upload them directly through our online inquiry form or send them via email to sales@bookprintingchina.com. For large files, please share a download link using platforms such as WeTransfer, Dropbox, or Google Drive.

How long does the poster production time?

Our poster production typically takes 3–10 days after proof approval. The exact timeline may vary depending on your order quantity, selected special finishes, and current production schedule.

What shipping methods are available?

We offer air, sea, and express shipping (DHL, FedEx, UPS). Our team will recommend the most cost-effective and reliable method based on your delivery time and budget.
