FAQ
Our printable posters
What is a printable poster?
A printable poster is a digital file (high-resolution PDF) that you download after purchase and print yourself. It's quick, affordable wall decor, with no delivery to wait for.
Wall poster or wall print: what's the difference?
None: both refer to an illustration meant to hang on a wall. We use both terms for the same range of products.
Which posters do you offer?
We offer kitchen posters, Paris posters, motivational posters, a holiday rental kit and personalised birth posters. Find everything in our wall posters collection.
Price and payment
How much does a printable poster cost?
Our printable posters and personalised posters start from €4. The exact price of each design or set is shown on its product page. The price includes the high-resolution PDF file; printing and framing are up to you.
Is a printable poster cheaper than a delivered poster?
Yes. A printed, delivered poster often costs €15 to €30 with shipping. With a printable file, you only pay for the file and the printing, and you can reprint the poster for personal use.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Bank card (CB, Visa, Mastercard, American Express), PayPal, Apple Pay, Shop Pay, Klarna and Bancontact. Payment is secure; we do not store any bank details.
Download and delivery
How do I receive my poster?
No parcel is sent: our posters are digital files. Standard posters can be downloaded immediately after payment (link by email and in your customer account). Personalised posters are sent by email within 24 h, 7 days a week (weekends included).
I haven't received the email, what should I do?
First check your junk (spam) folder and the "Promotions" tab. If the file isn't there, contact us at contact@salad-dressing.com with your order number and we'll send it again.
Do you deliver abroad?
Yes. As our posters are digital, they are available worldwide (Belgium, Switzerland, Canada…), with no shipping costs.
Sizes, printing and framing
Which file sizes do you receive?
You receive a high-resolution PDF (300 DPI) in A4 (21 × 29.7 cm) and A3 (29.7 × 42 cm). Some personalised posters also come in other sizes: these are shown on the product page.
How do I print a good-quality poster at home?
Open the PDF, choose "actual size" (100%) or "fit to page" in the print settings, select maximum quality and a thick matte paper. A colour inkjet printer is enough for A4. More tips in our printable poster guide.
Which paper should I use to print a poster?
Thick matte paper of 200 to 250 gsm gives a result close to an art print. Matte or semi-gloss photo paper also works. Avoid 80 gsm office paper, which is too thin.
Where can I get an A3 poster printed if I don't have a printer?
At a print shop or copy centre, a photo kiosk in a supermarket, or an online printing service. Simply send the PDF file and ask for colour printing on thick matte paper.
Which frame size should I buy?
A standard A4 (21 × 29.7 cm) or A3 (29.7 × 42 cm) frame, sold everywhere in home decor shops or online. For a more elegant look, choose a larger frame with a mount.
How do I hang a poster without drilling the wall?
Use removable adhesive strips, a frame leaning on a shelf, or a picture rail. It's ideal for renters. See our guide to wall decor without drilling.
Choosing a poster for each room
Which poster should I choose for a living room?
Above a sofa, go for a large A3 poster or a set of two or three matching posters. Choose colours that echo your cushions or rug. See our living room wall decor guide.
Which poster should I choose for a kitchen?
Mouth-watering illustrations, watercolour fruit or recipe posters add character to a kitchen without any renovation. See our printable kitchen posters.
Which poster should I choose for a baby's or child's room?
Soft illustrations (animals, moon, stars), pastel tones and a poster with the child's name create a soothing room. See our nursery poster guide.
Which poster should I choose for an office?
A short quote with a clean design, placed in your line of sight (facing the desk, above the screen), motivates you every day. See our motivational posters.
How do I create a gallery wall with posters?
Choose 3 to 7 posters with a common colour or theme, mix A4 and A3 sizes, and keep the same spacing (5 to 8 cm) between frames. Lay out the arrangement on the floor before hanging it. See our gallery wall guide.
Do you have posters for a holiday rental?
Yes: welcome poster, house rules, Wi-Fi information and check-out instructions, in a consistent style. See our printable holiday rental kit.
