Frequently Asked Questions

 

What type of files should I upload for printing?

Tricera accepts PSD, TIFF, JPG and PDF files for printing.

What is the turnaround time for printing?

Tricera has a 48 hour turnaround time for printing. If mounting is involved, the standard turnaround is 72 hours. Rush orders are available, but a rush charge may be applied. Deliveries are Tuesday & Thursday 10 am to 1 pm.

What is the largest paper width?

Most papers have a largest width of 60", but it is unadvisable to print directly to the edge. A rule of thumb is to leave at least an inch on either side. With the standard 2" margins, the largest width would be 56". Some papers, such as Enhanced Matte and Exhibition Fibre come in 64" width.

What colour profile should I use?

Tricera prints images using either Adobe (1998) or sRGB profiles. ProPhoto and CMYK colour profiles are converted to Adobe (1998). Black and White profiles are also accepted.

If I don't want margins, what do I do?

If you are looking to have your print trimmed to size, please let us know by typing "trim to size" in the margins section of the upload process.

If I don't specify margins, what happens?

If margins are not specified, a two inch margin will be added.

Can textured paper be laminated?

Since the texture allows for air pockets, it is not usually laminated. If you are looking to laminate an image, it is better to go with a smooth paper, such as Enhanced Matte, Luster or Hot Press Bright.

How can I pay for my prints?

Tricera accepts payment through cash, debit, Visa, or Mastercard.
