Why Custom-Size Posters Outperform Standard Sizes Every Time

In visual marketing, size is important, but something more important is flexibility. Although standard poster sizes like A3 or 24x36 are helpful, their impact, fit, and presentation leave a lot to be desired. For these reasons, we've seen a surge of custom-size poster printing for businesses, educators, and creatives nationwide in Canada.

Custom-size posters allow you to design for any location, whether that's a storefront, trade show, or academic presentation. You have the freedom to customize your visuals for any space, audience, and reason.

Let's discover why custom-size posters beat standard sizes every single time—and how Mr. Printer makes it simple to order and print custom-size posters online in Canada.

The Problem with Standard Poster Sizes

Typical sizes may be common, but they aren't always useful. Here are some examples:

• nwanted white space or cropping that interferes with your design.
• Poor fit in custom frames or mounting boards.
• Less impact in non-standard display areas.

When using a unique frame or display board, typical sizes can force you to make compromises with your layout, branding, or visibility.

Why Custom-Size Posters Work Well Every Time

Customized posters have so much flexibility and accuracy. Here is how customized-size posters can enhance your message:

1. Tailored Fit for Any Space: Narrow hallways, wide storefront windows, and expansive trade show booths can all be sized to fit your custom size- no trimming, no awkward gaps.
2. Maximum Visual Impact: Do you want to print large posters for a campaign or event? With customized-size posters, you can grab attention with your design and print process to increase visibility and get engagement.
3. Consistent Branding: When your proportions are consistent throughout the media, you build the brand identity you're seeking, whether creating a flyer, brochure, or sign.
4. Professional Presentation: The custom sizes and correct frame or mounting option can help bring a high-quality, as well as professional look to your display.
