Du kan indtaste dine egne mål for at passe til en specifik ramme eller et bestemt område. Hvis den valgte størrelse ikke stemmer overens med det originale billedes proportioner, vil vi enten beskære kunstværket eller udvide billedet med en spejlet eller ensfarvet kant. En digital mockup vil blive sendt til din godkendelse, før produktionen påbegyndes.
Bemærk venligst, at forhåndsvisningen på skærmen ikke afspejler den faktiske beskæring eller udvidelse. Kun mockuppen vil nøjagtigt vise den endelige komposition.
Selvom specialmål er tilgængelige, anbefaler vi at vælge et mål fra den foruddefinerede liste for at bevare de originale proportioner.
