What is CMYK?
In offset printing, the standard color mode used in CMYK. CMYK, or Cyan, Magenta, Yellow & Black represent the four process colours in this mode. When you are creating your files, be sure to check the color mode as programs like Photoshop by default use RBG color, not CMYK. CMYK may look more dull on a computer screen than RGB; more noticeable in large solid color areas.
Accepted File Formats
We require industry standard formats for all uploaded files. We keep quality in mind when we print every job. We accept the following file formats: TIF – JPG – PDF – EPS – PSD. We accept CorelDraw, Pagemaker & Quark or similar files by converting them to industry standard graphic formats like JPG, TIF or PDF.
Rich Black vs 100% Black
Large black areas or fonts bigger than 36 points should use Rich Black which stops areas appearing gray. Rich Black is created with 30% Cyan, 30% Magenta, 30% Yellow, 100% Black. This setup will keep black areas looking rich and bold. For best results with regular body text, do not use Rich Black.
What Paper to Choose?
Paper should be addressed first in your design work. With postcards, the best option is to choose a thicker cardstock instead of a thinner text weight. The difference between these 2 types of paper is thickness. Our text weight is based on pounds and our card stock is weighted by points. Want to feel the difference? Order a Free Sample Kit today.
What is Font Outlining?
We might not have the same fonts on our systems as your computer, so when saving your files in a vector based program (Illustrator, InDesign, Quark, CorelDraw) please outline your fonts. This will convert them to a vector image, will not effect the clarity and will allow us to see the same text as you see on your screen.
Coating Types
We have many coating options at Printing New York. Matte, UV, silk and spot UV. Choose the coating based on your application. For example, if you want to write on your cards with a pen, do not choose UV coating as a pen won’t write on it. In this case a matte or uncoated stock coating would suit. Choose UV coating for flyers or banners and our rich silk gives a touch of elegance; 16pt stock a more durable feeling.

Excellent quality and service! Our company is in process of rebranding and ordering from UPrinting has been seamless. They offer proof of every job prior to printing, the printing process is quick and quality was great. Even the packaging is so well done you will not have to worry about getting damaged product! I have added UPrinting to our vendor list for future purchases of posters!

From a picture I took on my iPhone I ordered an oversized poster. Uprinting alerted me that it might not be the sharpest quality but I took a chance anyway and Im glad I did. They did a fantastic job. I took the picture to a framing shop and the worker there couldnt believe it came from an iPhone, it looks like it came from a professional camera. Uprinting did an awesome job and Im so happy.

I ordered several custom extra large posters for a storefront and the quality, color and measurement/cuts were perfect. Not to mention the price! Even the care they took with the shipping, all the prints arrived without any creases. I will definitely be ordering more in the future!

I have ordered these large format posters a few times now for artwork that I found online and wanted to have enlarged for my home. I cannot say enough about the work that they do to make the pictures I send them look flawless. They’ve removed shadows, corrected color, sharpened images, etc., and the proofs are always sent to me within hours for approval before printing. I have had so many compliments on the pieces I order and then frame and the quality is always above par. I recommend this company to anyone looking for any type of printing needs and will continue to use them for anything I need in the future. Great company and excellent service.
