Poster Size Guidelines

Posters come in various sizes, but in Australia, the most common sizes range from A0 to A3. Among these, the A1 poster size is particularly popular due to its larger dimensions, which make it ideal for grabbing attention in busy environments. A2 and A3 poster sizes are slightly smaller and are often used for in-store promotions.

Here’s a breakdown of standard poster sizes in centimeters (cm) and inches:

• A0: 841 x 1189 mm, 84.1 x 118.9 cm, 33.1 x 46.8 inches
• A1: 594 x 841 mm, 59.4 x 84.1 cm, 23.4 x 33.1 inches

When choosing a poster size, consider the following factors:

1. Visibility: A larger poster size is more visible from a distance and can attract more attention.
2. Message: The size of your poster should complement the message you want to convey.
3. Location: Consider where the poster will be displayed and choose a size that fits the space.
4. Budget: Larger posters may cost more to print, so consider your budget when choosing a size.

The best poster size chart depends on your specific needs. If you’re looking for a standard size that is widely recognised and easy to work with, the A series sizes (A0 to A10) are a great choice. However, if you need a custom size to fit a specific space or design, custom sizes are also available.

• Purpose: Consider the purpose of your poster. Is it for advertising, informational purposes, or decoration?
• Audience: Think about who will be viewing your poster and choose a size that will be easily visible and attractive to them.
• Design: Your poster size should complement your design and allow for easy readability of text and viewing of images.
• Printing: Check with your printing service to ensure they can accommodate the size you choose.
