Archival pigment prints on fine art and photo papers
We print on a variety of papers as well as canvas at up to 44 inches wide and 40 feet long. We do not charge a setup fee, we do not charge extra for non standard sizes and for sizes not listed we do not charge the same prize as the next size up. Sizes not listed are priced pro-rata by the total square cm required. Prices are calculated based on total paper size, including borders. For large print runs or editions please contact us for a quote.
Files should be delivered at 300 dpi at final print size, saved in AdobeRGB colour space. Deliver the file as a flattened TIFF or PSD. Larger prints are generally fine to print at lower resolution than 300 dpi, with excellent results at resolutions as low as 180 dpi. Resolution higher than 300 dpi might be necessary for small prints with extremely fine detail. Please call or email us if you have any questions about file preparation.
Borders are part of the image size so the image must be scaled and placed on a larger canvas if borders are required.
Colour profiles for all our papers are available through us and provide extremely precise soft proofing on calibrated monitors. Please note: these profiles are only for printing on our printers.
If you want to upload your files, please use our DropBox. After you've uploaded your files please send us a quick email at info@digitalarte.co.uk or call us to discuss your requirements.

CMYK proofs
Printing for publications, brochures and reports require the use of CMYK inks. We can help you prepare your images correctly and convert your RGB files to CMYK. Inkjet pre-press proofs give a close approximation of what the actual offset print will look like. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
RAW file processing
Free-up your time to shoot instead of spending it converting your RAW files. All images are converted to either JPEG, TIFF, PSD or DNG. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Digital retouching
We can remove dust, scratches, blemishes and much more... All work is quoted on an individual basis. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Printer colour calibration (ICC profiling)
We can now offer a custom ICC profiling service for RGB printers. Supported printers include the popular dye and pigment inkjet printers made by Epson, Canon, and HP, as well as many other printers, desktop or wide format. We use an Eye-One iSis and the latest version of ProfileMaker Pro.
Custom RGB profiles are optimized for your specific printer, ink, and paper combination and will help you get the most out of your printer. Together with a calibrated monitor offer the most accurate screen to print match.
Getting a custom profile is easy. First, you print out a profile target on your desired paper and mail it to us. When we receive your profile target, we measure it, build the profile, and email it to you.
Just download our RGB Custom Profiles Guide and the A4 Profile Target and follow the instructions carefully.
For multiple profiles please call us for a quote.
