Print se može samo izrezati, nikada ne može biti veći od slike, stoga format s drugačijim omjerom stranica uzrokuje gubitak dijela slike. Prije bilo kakve štampe šaljemo vam digitalni prikaz (mockup) na odobrenje. Slika prikazana na ovoj stranici ne prikazuje stvarni rez — to prikazuje isključivo digitalni prikaz.
