A Brief on Canvas Prints

Are you curious about prints on canvas and about the process?

Canvas, as you may know, is a thick and durable fabric that is often used in the construction of tents, awnings as well as for oil and acrylic paintings. It is durable and when produced for the fine art printing process has a finer, more even weave and is lighter in weight. Sometimes, canvas used for printing has a combination of polyester and cotton, while some printing canvas is pure cotton. The canvas is primed with a special ink, receptive coating that assures consistent color from print to print as well as depth of color and richness in black to white and all shades in between. Other properties built into the coating and canvas augment the archival qualities and increase the brightness of the base to create eye-popping depth of color.

That's Canvas 101, so how about learning the process of reproducing your cherished photos on canvas prints?

Getting your photos on canvas involves hi-tech printing technology from beginning to end. It starts with an image that you wish to be replicated on a canvas. With "friendly" sites, you upload your photo and the site allows you to crop, size and edit your photo. Once the print company receives your file, some will do minor color correction and adjust brightness and contrast free of charge, while others may charge for it. The master printer (the person who does color adjustments and sets up the printer), will add borders, size the print accurately and sends the file to the printer after filling out the software data. Once printed, higher-end printing companies will apply a liquid laminate to the print for a perfect finish.

Special purpose printing machines (come in several varieties) are designed to deliver high-resolution large-scale printouts. Noteworthy, is that photos on canvas prints look much more defined and have more depth than their original counterparts resting in your photo album.

The canvas can then be sent to you stretched on stretcher bars with a wrap that either extends the image (gallery wrap) or is wrapped with a color (museum wrap). While this method doesn't require a frame, framing is an option. Consider using photos onto canvas to decorate the walls of your home, office or any other empty wall - waiting for its special canvas print.

Three Tips to ensure good quality digital photo printing

Digital photography is the "in" thing today. Here are some useful tips to keep in mind, while going for digital photo printing.

Tip No. 1

The quality of digital photo printing quality is directly dependent on the resolution and sharpness of the picture taken

For example, with a one megapixel camera, you cannot expect to get good quality print much larger than 8 by 10 inches dimension. If you want to print a poster size picture or larger, you should use a camera with as many megapixels as you can afford.

Tip No. 2

Click pictures at the highest possible resolution of your camera. Most people don't take advantage of their cameras high resolution settings, and use lower a resolution that, while it may afford you more pictures for the memory you have on your camera, it lowers the file size and potential for printing larger.

You never know which picture may come out stunning and if you find it comes up short of potential resolution, you'll be sadly disappointed. Another advantage of higher resolution is being able to crop portions of your photograph and focus on a particular portion for a high quality digital photo print.

Tip No. 3

Don't worry about a printer or a computer getting weighed down by the larger file. Printers can handle even the largest digital camera files with ease. Computers won't even think twice about the relatively small file size.

Tip No. 4

Most people don't give a second thought about the optics or the processor in the camera, but if you want to get more out of photography in the future, spend a little time checking into these factors. Both can be as important as the file size and megapixels. Have fun!
