How it's calculated

Three inputs. One number.

  1. 01

    Tell us the sizes

    Each graphic's printed width, height, and quantity.

  2. 02

    We estimate the film

    Your pieces are nested across a 30.5″ sheet. The length that takes is what you pay for.

  3. 03

    Your rate applies

    $0.04 per square inch of film to start. Volume customers get a lower rate on their account.

Sheet width × sheet length × rate. A 30.5″ × 50″ minimum sheet is 1,525 sq in, or $61.00 at the standard rate.

Pricing FAQ

The fine print, minus the fine print.

Why price by film instead of by graphic?

Because that's what it actually costs to make. Two orders with the same total graphic area can need very different amounts of film depending on how the shapes nest. Pricing the sheet keeps it fair and lets you fill leftover space for free.

How accurate is the estimate?

The estimator nests your graphics the same way we do in production, with a little spacing for cutting. Real layouts usually land within a few inches. Your final price is confirmed when we build the sheet, before anything prints.

Does the price include shipping?

No. Shipping is calculated at checkout based on weight and destination. Orders over a certain value will ship free within the continental US (threshold coming soon).

Are there setup or artwork fees?

None. If your file needs minor fixes we'll usually handle it at no charge. Significant redraws or vectorizing are quoted separately.

How do I get a volume rate?

Tell us about your monthly volume on the contact page. We'll set a per-square-inch rate on your account and every order you place uses it automatically.
