What resolution should I use for large scale prints, and what file types?

I work with vectors so I never go less than 300, and file is pdf or tiff

for large scales for print the resolution must be between (100dpi-120dpi) will be perfect.

Color type: CMYK

File Type: .pdf .psd .eps .ai .tiff (with controling text it have to be vectorized if it's created on Illustrator and layers should be merged if it's created on photoshop so text wouldn't be changed in transfer to the printer)

• produce raster elements in Photoshop and output as TIFF files
• create complex vector elements like logos or illustration in Illustrator and output as EPS or PDF files
• compose the final artwork in InDesign, linking in the raster and vector files, adding text and simple vector elements like colour blocks.
• output the composite PDF from InDesign, ensuring that raster elements are output at their native resolution, i.e. not downsampled to a particular output resolution.

Magazines, Brochures, logos, stationary or anything that is on paper

Resolution - 300 pixel/inch

Color Type - CMYK

File Types - EPS, PSD, .Ai, .CDR, .PDF

For Flex, Vinyle and other large formats 

Resolution - 72 pixel/inch (printers prefer)

Color Type - CMYK

File Types - EPS, PSD, .Ai, .CDR, .PDF, PNG

comment if you need more help

Hello Rana Alnajjar,How are you Doing? Thank you for Inviting Me to Answer this Question.1. For Large Scale Prints you should Use DPI Resolution2. File Types should be .cdr OR .ai or .eps or .pdfYou can just Ask the Printer or your Client in which format do they Need the file. Accordingly you can Provide them the File. Hope this Helps.

image resolutions between 72 and 150 dbi. large format prints are meant to be viewed from a distance.

file formats: eps / pdf / tiff / psd / ai 

this depends on the size and file types. for as an example if you are printing 3x4 meter popup, 100dpi is more than enough. but you should choose very good resolution rasters. normally if you have vector source files like eps, ai or pdf's will work fine

Large image  72 pixels

Small image 300 pixels

file types

you can use custom and change the height and width as you want

72 DPI or less (between 50-72) as long as the shortest side of the original picture (Bottom or side) length have a minimum length of 60cm, it should be good

DPI is fine with the large scale printing , and the file type it depends on the printer machine you will print with , any way at usual( JPG,TIF, PDF) are the most file types we are using during printing .
