Debate Signage

With all the hype of the 2012 Presidential debate I want to point out the debate signage and Large Format Printing, Posters, Yard Signs, ect. Anyone in politics trying to run for any government positions understands that the type and amount of signage they use is very critical is their political run. The more signage they have posted around the more people they get to see their signs and talk about them. When you pass by a Obama or Romney poster, it makes you think about the debate and start to wonder who your gonna vote for if you haven’t decided already. It starts with the initial decision to run for a position. You immediately want to start getting posters and road/yard signs in as many places as possible. These signs may be smaller but they attract many views because there is so many in every district. An example of a big road sign is a billboard, these also get many views being placed on highways where constant traffic is flowing.

Now we are in actual debate where the presidents have been talking in large groups of audience and on national television. You will notice that unlike in the speeches the President and Governor gave while running there are no signs of either party in the debates. But there is still Large Format Printings set behind them for a background. While running Large Format Printing is used to be an image of their face and a slogan to represent themselves.

In other situations that are not political Large Format Printing is still a great sign that can be used for other speeches and conventions. They can fit a lot of advertisement or information for your company if your using one at a convention.

    

Raster Resolution

DPI, known as Dots Per Inch, is the resolution of a raster image or scanned image. Printer and scanner resolutions are also measured in dpi. Your typical desktop laser printer will print at 300-600 dpi. At laser Sharp Sign Design we use a HP Laser Printer, with a very high dpi it gives us the ability to create smoother and cleaner products. The poducts final quality of printing depends on the resolution of the image being used to print, called the bitmap or scan.

Take a 400 dpi image and increase the size in a graphics program. When you do this, you have only made the tiny pixel squares bigger. This creates whats called the "jaggies", by making the image bigger it gave you a jaggy edge. When dealing with raster images know that in order to "blow it up" you must have a high resolution picture or be able to transvert the image into a vector file using programs such as Coreltrace or Eurovector.
