Forex, Rigid panels

How to properly create files

In order to print Rigid Panels (forex, plexiglas, dibond) you need to create one file only.

The file you need to create shall be the size you ordered plus 5mm bleed.

If you use raster images in the document and the file size exceeds 70x100cm, the resolution of images can be lowered to 150ppi without any problem, thus making the file smaller.

If you want your panel to have a custom shape, refer to the Custom shape guide to prepare the cut layer too.

Pay attention to the base

In the case of Self-standing Panels, pay attention to the lower side of the graphic document. Consider that the Wedge base has a 30cm base and is 10cm high. Therefore, do not place any logos, texts or graphic designs in this part of the file if you do not want them to be covered.
