YOU RECEIVE
• 12 individual JPEG artwork files at 300 ppi.
• A 12-page US Letter printable PDF.
• A 12-page A4 printable PDF.
• Contents, printing instructions and approved terms.
One illustration per printable page. Both PDFs contain the same 12 distinct illustrations. One ZIP download, approximately 47.2 MB. No TIFFs, egg plates, initials, vignettes, tags or pockets included.
PRINTING
Print PDFs at 100% / Actual Size. Carefully cleaned warm ivory surrounds and gently softened painted margins preserve the original birds, important scenery, historical colors, captions and signatures. Artwork is approximately 4 × 7 inches at its original printable size, smaller than the paper; these are not full-page enlargements. Individual artwork canvases range from 4.13–4.49 inches wide and 6.84–7.07 inches tall at 300 ppi. No upscaling was used. Print smaller for creative projects; enlarging may soften detail. Colors vary by screen, printer and paper.
About the artwork: This collection reproduces authentic historical material from the Merakintsugi archive. Original artwork and wording have been preserved and reflect the era in which they were created. Paper toning, age marks, and printing imperfections are part of their vintage character.
SOURCE
