Frequently asked questions

Why would I buy a digital file, instead of a physical print?

Buying a digital file offers several unique advantages over a physical print. First and foremost, the turnaround time between you placing your order and receiving your personalized design is incredibly fast, often within 1 business day and, in many cases, the same day. This means you can have it printed, framed, and displayed in no time, bypassing any potential shipping delays or damages.

Moreover, a digital file gives you complete control over your purchase. There are no limits to the number of times you can print it once you have the file. This flexibility is perfect if you’re organizing a party and would like to incorporate it into your table décor or need multiple copies for any other purpose.

In addition, by choosing digital over physical, you’re making a conscious choice to reduce your carbon footprint. This is because digital products eliminate the need for physical shipping and packaging, which can be substantial contributors to environmental impact. So not only are you receiving a beautiful piece of art, you’re also making a greener choice.

Overall, opting for a digital file provides you with speed, control, versatility, and an environmentally friendly solution for your art needs.

What will I receive?

Every done-for-you poster is one high-resolution JPEG, delivered by email as a Dropbox link. It’s print-ready at 300 DPI and works at 8×10", 11×14", 16×20" or 18×24". There’s no physical product and nothing is posted — you download the file and print it wherever you like.

You also get a complimentary black and white version of the same poster, included free with every order.

How and when will I receive it?

When your poster is ready we’ll email you a Dropbox link.

For our done-for-you posters, we offer 3 turnaround options:

► 1 business day — fulfilled by the next business day from you placing your order with your photo uploaded (Monday to Friday)

► 12-hour weekDAY rush — fulfilled within 12 hours of you placing your order with your photo uploaded (Monday to Friday)

► 24-hour weekEND rush — fulfilled within 24 hours of you placing your order with your photo uploaded (Saturday & Sunday)

How do I download my file?

When your poster is ready we’ll email you a Dropbox link. You don’t need a Dropbox account.

  1. Open the email from us and click the link
  2. The poster opens in Dropbox in your browser
  3. Then download the poster itself:
    On a computer — hover over the poster file and click the download icon that appears.
    On a phone or tablet — tap the three dots in the top right of the poster, then tap Download.
  4. The JPEG saves to your device — that’s the file you take to a printer

🔒 Dropbox may ask you to sign up. You do not have to. At the bottom of that box, choose “Or continue with download only”.

If the link doesn’t open or the download won’t start, email hello@giftstoprint.com and we’ll send the file another way.

How do I print my file?

The poster can be printed at home, however for a professional look we suggest getting it printed at your local print shop (Staples, FedEx Office, or a local photo lab). There are also many online printing options.

Will it still look like newspaper when I print it?

Yes. The aged-newspaper effect is part of the design itself, not something the paper provides. The tone, the texture and the print grain are all built into the file, so it prints exactly as it looks on screen — on ordinary white paper.

There’s no special paper to buy. A matte or satin finish gives the nicest result, but standard printer paper is absolutely fine.

Is a personalized newspaper poster a good anniversary gift?

Yes, especially for milestone anniversaries like 1st, 5th, 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th, 30th, 35th, 40th, 45th, 50th, 55th, 60th, and 65th. A custom anniversary newspaper poster recreates the front page from the year the couple married, featuring real Canadian news headlines, sporting moments, entertainment references, and price comparisons from that era. With a personal photo and message added, it tells the story of where the world was when they said their vows — and most couples frame it and keep it permanently.

What does the poster include from their wedding year?

Each poster features real events and cultural moments from the couple’s wedding year in Canada — major news headlines, sport highlights, notable entertainment and pop culture from the era, and interesting price comparisons showing what everyday items cost at the time. You personalize it with the couple’s photo, names, wedding date, and an optional message at the bottom.

Can I customize the names, date, and message?

Yes. You choose the couple’s photo and fill in the details — names, wedding date, and any message you’d like at the bottom of the poster — on this page, as part of placing your order. There is nothing to send afterwards. The design team then builds them into your poster and emails you the finished file. If anything needs adjusting, they’ll fix it — before you download, or after.

Is this a good last-minute anniversary gift?

Yes. Because GiftsToPrint delivers a digital file by email rather than a physical product by shipping, there’s no risk of a gift arriving late. The 12-hour weekday rush option means you can place your order in the morning and have the finished file ready to print the same evening. Once you have the file, Staples, FedEx Office, or a local photo lab or any local print shop can produce a framed print within hours.

What makes this different from other anniversary gift ideas?

Most anniversary gifts are generic — flowers, wine, standard photo frames. A personalized newspaper poster is tied directly to the couple’s specific story: the exact year they married and what was happening in Canada at the time. It’s the kind of gift that starts a conversation and gets displayed rather than stored away. GiftsToPrint has completed over 26,400 orders across Canada, Australia, the US, and the UK.

Important info

► This listing is for a digital product; no physical product will be shipped out.

► Refunds or exchanges are not accepted once your poster has been delivered — that is, once we’ve emailed you the download link. If something isn’t right with it, tell us and we’ll revise it. You can cancel for a full refund any time before then.
