1. Canvas production

What materials are used for the creation of your photos on canvas?

We only use high-quality FineArt canvas that is mainly made of cotton. The wood of the frame is of Scandinavian production of certified quality. We generally use environmentally friendly components in the production of our photos on canvas.

How are canvas photos produced?

The photos are printed onto the canvas by using thermal colour printing. This produces brilliant, fade-resistant colours, and allows the reproduction of fine details.

How is the canvas attached to the frame?

The canvas is stretched onto the frame and stapled on at the back. This way the motif is spread over the edges, so that the picture can be hung up without a frame, and provides a three-dimensional look.

How strong is the frame?

The frame is 2 cm thick. If you want a thicker frame, you can also purchase frames that are 4 cm thick during the order process.

How much of my image will be visible on the side of the frame?

3 cm of the image will be on the frame on all sides. Due to this wrapping of the image around the frame, your photo canvas will have a three-dimensional look. Please consider the cut of 3 cm in the selection of your photo, so that important parts of the image, e.g. heads of persons, are not cut off.

Do you also produce custom formats?

We produce any format for you by order. The sizes must be defined in steps of ten centimetres. For example, 20 cm x 150 cm is possible as a format – but we cannot produce 67 x 83 cm, for example. We do not offer products smaller than 20 x 30 cm. Should you require sizes over 140 x 210 cm, please contact our customer service at service@photo-on-canvas.co.uk. We will process your inquiry within 24 hours.

2. File requirements

Which file formats can I upload?

Our system only accepts files in the format JPG (also called JPEG). This is the most common format for digital photos. Before you upload to our server, please check if your file has this format. Should the image of your choice have a different format, you can send it to us at service@photo-on-canvas.co.uk. We will gladly convert the file into a suitable format for you. This service is naturally free of charge.

After uploading my photo, I receive the message “Invalid file format”. What am I doing wrong?

The file you uploaded is not a “JPG” or “JPEG” file. Please check the file type of your photo, and convert it into the correct file format using an image processing program.

Is the resolution of my photograph sufficient?

You can have photos on canvas produced in good quality in the formats 80 x 60 cm and 100 x 75 cm with a resolution of 2 megapixels. If you want a larger format, your resolution should not be below 4 megapixels. Please read our minimum requirements listed under “Formats & Prices”.

After uploading my photo, why is the suggested size only in a smaller format?

After you upload your photo to our server, our system immediately checks which canvas formats this photo would suit. The amount of pixels in your photo is decisive. We conduct this check in order to be able to guarantee you a high-quality result. In order to be able to choose larger formats, you must upload a file with a finer resolution.

How many megabytes (MB) may my photo file have?

Your photo must not exceed 50 MB for uploading. We will provide you with an FTP-server for the transfer of larger data sizes. You are able to store data here, which is then available to us for the production of your print. You can also contact us on service@photo-on-canvas.co.uk or by phone on +44 207 788 76 37. We can convert the file into a suitable format free of charge.

Which colour profile should I use?

In general, no special colour profile is necessary for your photo canvas. However, we can process files that are delivered in Adobe-RGB or sRGB with especially high colour fidelity.

What does “binding production preview” mean?
