A growth chart is a popular example of Large Format Printing
Large Format Printing refers to print materials that are too large to be printed on the most readily available sizes of commercial printing presses. Sometimes called wide-format printing or grand-format printing, large format printing requires the use of specialty production equipment that can accommodate bigger-than-normal print dimensions.
In the print industry, "large format" is actually a relative term because maximum print sizes vary from printer to printer. But generally speaking, large format refers to the following categories of print materials:
- Window and Wall Posters
- Maps, Diagrams and Charts
- Event Announcements
- Large Wall Calendars
- Store Displays
- Promotional Signage
- Child Growth Charts
- Important Notices for Employees, Students or other groups
- Standees
- Horizontal or Vertical Banners
As you can see, large format printing has many uses. It can be used to get attention from afar, to provide quick reference, or to provide a large visual for use in a classroom or other instructional setting. Also, most businesses use large format print materials for promotional purposes.
Large format printing is most commonly designed as a flat wall-hanging, but it can also be made to fold or in some cases made to be free-standing.
