    Unhappy Newbie in need of help :[

    Hi all, I want to start printing my own posters but I am so confused on what service to use. I would like my prints to come out similar to the ones that alamo drafthouse makes. I know that most of their prints are made with recycled paper and I found some sites that print with those types of paper. I found some sites that do "Green printing recycled poster prints" would anyone recommend that? I am working with illustrator and photoshop.

    Also does anyone know for a 18 x 24 or a 12 x 18 poster size what should be the correct photoshop size settings for printing? Sorry if I'm asking these questions but I really want to start making posters :[

    If anyone is familiar with these "green printing" services and could help me out please let me know.. I would even pay for advice :[

    Thanks again!

    these are questions you need to ask whoever is printing the poster. there is no standard size.

    As far as I know the Alamo Drafthouse posters are all screen printed.
