Long Panoramic Prints

[rasputin]

I have a 13:1 ratio panoramic picture I'd like to get printed. After stitching the images together I'd rather not have to stitch bits of paper together!

Any way to get it in one?

How big do you want it?

You could order the largest poster print available from somewhere like photobox, and then just cut the white space off once it's delivered.

Hmm just had a think about it - maybe I was being a bit ambitious



If I get it 30" long - it'll still only be about 2" high.

Would need about 100" of length to get the height acceptable.

Oops

There are plenty of printing shops with large format printers who could do this. Best to ring around and find out the limits they have on print width and length before finalising on a format.

If you want to print it yourself there are some limitations to overcome on maximum image size in software such as Photoshop and the printer drivers. You can buy roll paper for ink-jets so it's possible to print panos a few feet long x A3 height but you start to run out of memory pretty quickly when you do this sort of stuff.

maybe crop it up to the telegraph pole and leave the rest in?

From the left or the right..?

Seriously, a large format A0 printer should be able to print full width and give something reasonable. As an alternative, a while back roll frred options were available for some home printers, They effectively gave a 210mm width print as long as you wanted it. Epson from memory did this.
