Preparing your A0 Plan Printing artwork
Full artwork guide- Supply plans as PDF at the correct output scale with dimensions clearly marked on the drawing.
- Verify that your PDF is not scaled-to-fit during export — this is the most common cause of incorrect plan dimensions on print.
- Resolution: vector PDFs (from CAD or drawing software) do not have a resolution limit. If supplying raster images, use a minimum of 200 DPI at the final print size.
- Include a scale bar on the drawing — this allows errors to be checked on the printed sheet.
- For multiple sheets, supply as a multi-page PDF in the correct order and clearly label each sheet.
- Specify the required output size (A0, A1, A2) and whether you need portrait or landscape orientation.
