Custom printed Chalkboard Signs are a great option for quantity, franchises, small text and customers with the design already created. Chalk It Up Signs can print directly to our chalkboards from client created files. This printing page link gives examples and cost.
Below are the specifications required for us to use your files. We include in our estimate 1/2 hour of time to adjust your files for printing. If the files need extra work we charge $100/hour to adjust and create the final workable file. You may also choose to create the final chalkboard print files for us if you have the expertise and software. Let us know and we can guide you through that option.

Here is an example of the two files we require to print directly to a chalkboard. We can create them in our design studio from the files you supply.
The pink or magenta files indicates the color white. We need to print white under everything on the chalkboards. The color file is everything else. Areas that are white get punched out so the white can show through. White gets printed first on the chalkboard.
