When you need world-class local poster printing in NYC, you need the best — you need Bestype.

For demanding NYC clients, Bestype offers two types of local poster printing solutions. They are:

Digital Poster Printing – The most common option chosen for today’s customers, digital poster printing uses a process that charges the ink elements and then applies the charged ink to the paper. Digital is delivered without the interim step of creating plates and is generally easier to execute for small jobs or those that involve variable output. It is the dominant method in use today for poster printing projects of all sizes.

Offset Poster Printing – Offset printing, also referred to as offset lithography, was the primary method in use until the last fifteen years when digital presses were generally able to match the quality and cost of ‘traditional’ offset methods. Offset uses either CMYK (continuous process) or Pantone (spot color) methods to specify the application of ink to paper, and is ideal for extremely high volume applications or those involving very large layers of deep colors, with a liberal application of ink is required to ensure optimum coverage.

In addition to choosing the best poster printer for your project, the most important consideration for creating an effective poster that communicates successfully is the nature of the images and graphics you use in the design. Here are five powerful and proven guidelines for getting the most out of our poster design as you prepare for printing success:

1. Less is More – When in doubt, reduce text and increase visual impact. You have mere fractions of a second to grab the viewer’s attention.
2. Go Big – Since posters are an inherently visual medium, the smart money is ongoing big with the design itself and the size of the finished product.
3. Use Bleeds – Let those powerful images bleed over the edge of the paper or board so that your poster printing process results in a clean, full-coverage design that wows the viewer.
4. Commit to a Color Palette – Colors are good; aligned colors are better. Use a color palette that has been designed to ensure that you have consistent color selections and that they complement one another.
5. Build on Your Brand – Posters are one of the most effective methods for communicating your brand powerfully, so commit to your brand guidelines. Use the exact colors, fonts, and specifications called for in your brand guidelines. Make sure your logo shines through. Carry those colors and standards throughout the design so it feels unique to you.

As the premier solution provider for printing in NYC, Bestype is your one-stop source for the most sophisticated or complex projects you can imagine. Custom poster printing requires unique capabilities, and the team at Bestype delivers. Here are some types of custom poster considerations you may want to incorporate in your next NYC poster printing project:

• Large Format Poster Printing – Have you considered going large? Large format printing in NYC is a major custom poster printing option that Bestype supports. From covering a window to covering an entire wall, large format posters are a critical tool in the visual communication arsenal and Bestype can deliver for your poster printing NYC standard and large format needs.
• Paper Selections and Options – Consider our high-quality standard heavyweight paper, or upgrade to super heavyweight with a matte finish to minimize glare in indoor settings. Then there are photo gloss papers, perfect for applications involving a lot of vivid photos or images. Some are full-gloss, some are semi-gloss depending upon your application. Finally, you can also select a high-quality poster board that is ultra-thick and ensures the poster remains stiff when hanging or framing.
• Special Shapes & Die Cuts – Your poster doesn’t have to be like everyone else’s poster. Consider changing the shape of the poster to match that of your logo or brand imagery, or cutting it to fit a specific surface or space.
• Unique Finishes & Mounts – Would you like to laminate your poster to protect it from the elements? Maybe your poster should be mounted so it’s ready for use with a rigid backing. You can also choose between a matte or gloss finish. These options are all available for you when you choose Bestype for poster printing NYC first and foremost.
