Anyone know a wholesale source for the billboard sized prints that they just tie over existing billboards. I have a really good customer who wants to have one made to cover his existing sign in another state, which he says is close to billiboard size, and he would like to give me the business if possible.
Also, will I be able to lay it out in Corel Draw or something similar or will I need to have someone with a program like PosterShop? (Is that right?)
Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

Hi Amy - try Nichols in Salt Lake City. Sorry, don't have the number at home. Keep in mind that a banner that big is going to be heavy - affects shipping cost and may require special equipment to install.

API here in Winston-Salem does that type of work.They also print paper posters for the outdoor industry. If you need pricing and details email me Amy.

I do that! (large format billboard printing). Give me your details and I'll be glad to help out.
Oh - Corel Draw, Photoshop, Freehand, Illustrator, Canvas, anything you wish to work in - no problem. Scaling isnt a problem either, unless you've got photos etc.
We are talking about 70dpi here, so it's not that big of a deal to have low-res photos as you may think, although as always - the better you put in, the better you get out.
