Using our StudioPartner software you can quickly and easily drag and drop your images into a wide range of templates. Simply select the type of media you would like the image printed on and leave the rest to us. Feel free to contact us to discuss this new service from Colorworld.
Giclée prints on canvas, watercolor or other substrates will make photos and paintings jump out with deep blacks, saturation and gradations hard to achieve with other media
To ensure that we can produce the very best print for you we recommend that you save your image in sRGB colorspace at 300dpi.
To achieve the perfect print we use individual colour profiles for each type of paper that we print on. We also use a high quality ink jet printer with professional grade nozzles.
We offer both bordered and unbordered prints allowing you choose how you want to present your work with print sizes up to 60"x40". Bordered prints contain a 50% grey stroke around the image with a 2-3 inch border depending on the size of the print. e.g a 20x16 bordered print will have a 16x12 image printed with a 2 inch white border.
We are able to produce fine art Giclée prints from digital files, negatives, transparencies and even original artwork.
