The following specifications can be used when creating a production file for all standard outdoor billboards except for retrofit poster panels, which are explained separately.


Standard Billboards:

• Hold your design to the dimensions of the structure. The structure size represents the actual image area of the billboard.
• Bleed your background by 6” on all four sides. This makes the overall vinyl size 1’ larger than the image area in both height and width.
• The production facility should make 3” pockets on the back of the vinyl for installation. This does not change the overall size of the vinyl.

See illustration below.

 

 

Retrofit Poster Panels:

• Hold your design to 10’5” x 22’8”.
• Bleed your background by 3/4” on all four sides.
• Overall vinyl size can not be any larger than 10’-6.5" x 22’-9.5" or any smaller than 10’6 x 22’9. Any other size will not fit in the structure.
• The production facility should make 3” pockets on the back of the vinyl for installation. This does not change the overall size of the vinyl.
