In order to print your files on Photo Paper you need to set them up correctly. If you don't know how to set them up or require assistance, please contact us.

Set your image to the final size of the print you require.

Standard Print Sizes are:

• 3x5 inch (9x13cm)
• 4x6 inch (10x15cm)
• 4.5x6 inch (11x15cm)
• 5x7 inch (13x18cm)
• 5x7.5 inch (13x19cm)

All images are printed to fit with the print size selected. If the size is not the same proportions it will be printed within the paper size and white borders will be on 2 sides.

If you want the file to be printed to the paper size please note in your instructions "print full print". This will possibly crop 2 sides of your image to fit the paper.
