FILE FORMATS
We can accept files in the following formats:RESOLUTION, COLOUR SPACE & PROFILES
We work at 300ppi (pixel per inch) so ideally your images should be saved at 300ppi at your chosen print size before sending them to us.Images can be CMYK or RGB so you can leave them in the colour space you made the original file in. We recommend Adobe RGB (1998) if you’re working in RGB. If you want to soft proof we have ICC profiles available here.
Layers & Compression
Files with multiple layers must be flattened before you send them, these are usually file formats such as PSD and PSB (Adobe Photoshop files) or TIFFs.If the format that you are using allows for compression (such as jpeg or pdf) please select the highest quality available. When using compression on your print file this will have adverse effects on the final print quality.
FILE SIZE
The largest image you can upload through our website is 20MB, however, we can accept larger images can be sent to us via www.wetransfer.com.RESIZING & ENLARGING IMAGES
We’re happy to resize your image to your chosen print size and will send you a layout proof for approval before proceeding printing. Ideally 300ppi is the required resolution for print but we appreciate that this may not always be possible. If your unsure about how big your file will enlarge by you can email it to info@saxonprint.com or if the image is over 10MB it can be sent to us via www.wetransfer.com. If your image is too small for your chosen print we will let you know before we send you a proof and we will also let you know the largest possible size.
PROOFING
Before we proceed to print we will send you a layout proof via the email address you provide during the ordering process. This gives you a chance to check the image is correct before we go to print. Please note that we will not print your file unless we have received confirmation that the proof is okay to print.We do not check the content of your file(s) i.e. telephone numbers, spellings etc. and will not be held responsible for any errors and or omissions arising from any mistake(s) originating from your file.

Climate controlled stage and production environments ensures that your prints are consistently printed to the highest possible standard.
