Poster prints and photo prints serve different jobs on PrintPosters.in. Photo paper is heavier, handles skin tones better, and suits albums through A3 sizes. Poster paper keeps large dimensions affordable — think teen room band posters, office motivational prints, or event signage at 18×24 and beyond. If your file is a phone portrait, choose photo paper. If it is a graphic or huge landscape, poster may fit better.
