Default Re: Posters - Rolled or folded? What's your preference?

What are the typical dimensions for the sizes of S, M & L??
I'm afraid I don't know the exact sizes used in the industry, but I personally consider:

A4 = Extra small
A4x2 = Small (standard poster size)
A4x4 = Medium
A4x8 = Large
Anything bigger than that = XL, XXL, billboard. Lol.


For example, I believe the Dead Island: Treasure Edition poster is A4x8 size (don't quote me!), whereas standard posters you'd usually receive as pre-order incentives are typically A4x4 size. The latter is also the generic size for rolled posters you'd buy from a poster display rack in a store like HMV

Cinema posters typically tend to be the XL or maybe XXL size on my scale above. Anything larger than that would be the size of a house!
