Poster Size Guide

Poster size comparison guide showing all Headwind Designs poster sizes

Use the guide above to compare our available poster sizes. All dimensions refer to the size of the print itself; framed posters will be slightly larger overall.

Choosing a poster size

Small sizes
A5, A4, 5 × 7" and 6 × 8" are well suited to shelves, desks, gallery walls and smaller spaces.

Medium sizes
A3, A2, 11 × 17", 12 × 16" and 12 × 18" are versatile choices for most walls and work well as individual framed or unframed prints.

Large sizes
A1, A0 and sizes from 16 × 24" upwards create a stronger focal point and are best suited to larger wall spaces.

A-series or inch sizes?

A-series sizes are the international ISO standard and are particularly common in the UK and Europe.

Inch-based sizes are especially common in the United States and are also widely used elsewhere.

There is no difference in print quality between the two systems - simply choose the dimensions that best suit your space or frame.

Framed posters

The dimensions listed below refer to the artwork itself. If you select a framed poster, the overall external dimensions will be slightly larger because of the frame.
