Two ways to create a canvas print

For collection artwork, open the image and choose a canvas option in its print studio. For your own photograph or digital artwork, start with the original file and tell us the dimensions you have in mind. Uploaded customer files need their own image-quality assessment; a small web image may not contain enough detail for a large print.

Choose dimensions that suit the image

Custom sizing gives you flexibility, but the image proportions still matter. Decide whether keeping the complete composition is more important than fitting a particular frame size. Read the size guide for help measuring and comparing shapes.

Stretching, edges and floating frames

Consider what will appear at the edges of a stretched canvas, particularly when faces, text or other important details are close to the border. Ask the studio about stretching and custom floating frames. Confirm the finished dimensions and framing quote for your project.

Is canvas the right material?

Canvas texture changes how fine detail appears compared with smooth paper or a glossy surface. For detailed maps, small lettering or a different finish, compare paper, acrylic and aluminum. Our Toronto canvas printing service can help you decide.
