1. What are the A-series paper sizes from A4 to A0 in cm?
A-series paper sizes are standard across printing, ideal for reproducing artwork at various scales. Here are the dimensions:
• A0: 84.1 cm × 118.9 cm
• A1: 59.4 cm × 84.1 cm
• A2: 42 cm × 59.4 cm
• A3: 29.7 cm × 42 cm
• A4: 21 cm × 29.7 cm – perfect for small-format art prints, portfolios, or limited editions
Artists often choose A4 for its manageability and affordability when producing and selling prints.
2. Do I need to pay VAT on A4 artist prints?
Yes. A4 prints are subject to the UK’s standard VAT rate of 20%, whether you’re selling artwork or ordering for personal use. Please consider VAT when pricing your art or budgeting for print runs.
3. What paper types are best for A4 art prints?
The right paper enhances the look and feel of your artwork. We offer:
• Blueback (130gsm): Matte and UV-stable, suited for posters but rarely used for art prints
• Silk Paper (200gsm): Semi-gloss with excellent colour depth – a great balance for art prints
• Plastic Paper (350gsm): Durable and reflective – ideal for bold, weather-resistant artwork
• Uncoated Paper (180gsm): Matte and textured – a favourite for hand-drawn or vintage-style prints
For fine art quality, we recommend silk or uncoated papers, depending on your aesthetic.
4. What resolution is best for A4 artist prints?
Use 300 DPI or higher to ensure your artwork prints clearly and professionally. This helps maintain detail, texture, and colour clarity—especially important for illustrations, photography, or digital art.
5. Can I print larger sizes than A4?
Definitely. We print from A4 all the way up to A0, and offer custom sizes too. If you’re preparing for a gallery or want to offer larger format prints, just get in touch for a bespoke quote.
6. How can I make sure my artwork prints with accurate colours?
Design your artwork in CMYK colour mode to avoid unexpected shifts when moving from screen to print. RGB (used for screens) often doesn’t translate perfectly to ink. Use calibrated monitors and soft proofing tools for better consistency.
7. What are bleed and cut marks, and do I need them for art prints?
Yes. For clean edges and accurate trimming, include a 3mm bleed on all sides of your artwork. This avoids white borders and ensures your artwork runs edge to edge. Cut marks show where trimming will occur.
8. What’s the turnaround time for A4 art prints?
Our standard production time is 3–5 working days, plus delivery. Express options are available. We ship UK-wide, including to Bournemouth, Southampton, Dorset, and beyond.
9. Do you offer eco-friendly options for artist prints?
Absolutely. GD Print uses responsibly sourced paper and sustainable inks wherever possible. We’re committed to helping artists reduce their environmental impact without sacrificing quality.
10. Can A4 prints be used for exhibitions or outdoor displays?
Yes, though A4 is typically used for framed prints, portfolios, and small sales. For outdoor use, consider weather-resistant materials like plastic paper. Bright colours and bold visuals help A4 prints stand out in public spaces.
