Du kan ange egna mått för att passa en specifik ram eller yta. Om det valda måttet inte överensstämmer med originalbildens proportioner kommer vi antingen att beskära konstverket eller utöka bilden med en speglad eller enfärgad kant. En digital mockup skickas för ditt godkännande innan produktionen påbörjas.
Vänligen notera att förhandsvisningen på skärmen inte återspeglar den faktiska beskärningen eller utökningen. Endast mockuppen visar den slutgiltiga kompositionen korrekt.
Även om anpassade storlekar är möjliga, rekommenderar vi att du väljer ett mått från den fördefinierade listan för att bevara de ursprungliga proportionerna.
