Large Format Print Artwork Automation with Checks at Finished Size

Banners, posters, roll-ups and signage carry their own scale, bleed and resolution rules. FastEditor automates the flow from upload to production-ready file, so every large-format job is checked before it reaches the printer.

Scale and bleed enforced. Each product carries its finished size, bleed and safe-area rules, so artwork is checked at the real output scale rather than a generic threshold.

Resolution validation at size. Large format is viewed at distance, so FastEditor measures resolution against the finished dimensions and flags files that will not hold up.

Production-ready output. On approval, FastEditor outputs a print-ready file to the printer's specification, so the job goes straight to production without a prepress round.

How it works

From upload to production-ready file

  1. 1Upload

    Logo or photo upload

    Logos are vectorised automatically; photos are quality-checked.

  2. 2Validate

    Checked against the technique

    Size, colour and detail limits validated per product and method.

  3. 3Approve

    Proof approval

    The customer previews the proof and approves what gets produced.

  4. 4Produce

    Production-ready file

    Output in the supplier’s format, resolution and colour profile.

The right file at the right scale, every time.

Large format has its own rules. A banner, a roll-up and a poster each have a finished size, a bleed and a safe area, and an image that looks fine on screen can fall apart when it is output at metres wide. Getting the scale or resolution wrong means a costly reprint.

FastEditor checks this on upload. The artwork is measured against the product's finished size, bleed and resolution requirements, and the customer is guided to fix anything that would fail before the order proceeds. The print-ready file is then generated to specification.

  • Finished size and bleed enforced per product
  • Resolution measured at the real output scale
  • Colour converted to the printer colour space
  • Files that will not hold at size flagged before production

Every connected large format supplier, ready to produce.

Connected large format suppliers arrive in the FastEditor Product Hub with their sizes, bleed rules and production specifications already attached to each product, across banners, posters, roll-ups and signage.

New suppliers are added continuously, so any large format product in the catalogue is production-ready from the day it is connected.

  • Sizes and bleed rules built in per product
  • Colour and resolution requirements defined per printer
  • Banners, posters, roll-ups and signage supported

Helloprint supports all four large format families listed here: posters, rollup banners, X banners and beachflags. Flyeralarm also supports a selection; availability depends on the product and configuration.

Coming soon: Probo, Showdown Display and Expofit. Product coverage and launch dates will be announced when confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does FastEditor check on a large format upload?

Finished size, bleed, safe area, resolution at the output scale and colour space, all measured against the product's real production specification.

How is resolution judged for large format?

Resolution is measured against the finished dimensions, taking the viewing distance into account, and files that will not hold up at size are flagged before the order proceeds.

Does FastEditor convert artwork to the printer colour space?

Yes. Uploads are converted to the colour space the printer requires for the product, so the output matches production rather than a screen preview.

Which file formats are accepted?

PDF, AI, EPS and SVG for vector artwork, and PNG, JPG and TIFF for raster. Files are checked against the product specification on upload.

Do large format orders produce a print-ready file automatically?

Yes. Once the artwork passes the checks and the customer approves, FastEditor generates a print-ready file to the printer's specification.
