Answer 2

Not commonly done would be to coat fabric with light sensitive emulsion, then expose and develop according to the product instructions. Most likely, you are referring to the process where a photograph's emulsion is stripped from most of the paper backing, then adhered to canvas in a press operation. Many photo printers offer this service. To demonstrate the separation part, try peeling off the image from an old photo you don't need.

You will need to use high caliber and modern printers like HP Designjet 6100 and Epson Stylus Pro 9880. These printers are used to print images on canvas and other large format prints.

Some companies are using similar printers for their canvas prints. The fabric quality of the canvas gives the image a more artistic feel making it more popular and in demand.

Answer 4

The way to put a photo on canvas does not involve literally attaching the photo to the canvas. Instead, you spread photo chemicals onto the canvas and print the picture directly to it. In this way the photo becomes permanently bonded to the canvas.

Answer 5

It used to be a difficult process but with the new digital technology now available it is much easier. As in all things, there are many ways to do something. This is just one suggestion:

1. Digitize the image. (Take a picture of it with your digital camera or take it to a professional digital printer and have them scan it.) 300 dpi is standard for high quality prints.

2. Take the digital image to a digital printing center that will print on alternative media, i.e., water color paper, canvas, etc. Do an internet search for digital print houses. You can find places where they will let you use the equipment yourself.

3. Digitally print the image onto canvas

Answer 6

Any decent photo lab can accomplish this. The print layer containing the emulsion is stripped from the paper backing and applied to a canvas which is then stretched over a board or within a frame. If you have a spare print, try separating the emulsion layer (image layer) from the paper substrate just for fun.

Good Question... there is a number of ways you can do this. If you don't have a suitable printer at home then I would suggest to look online for companies that sell customisable canvas prints. Canvas prints really brighten up the room. Printable canvas prints comes in lots of different weights and textures, if you are doing it from home choose a canvas that is suitable for ink jet printers.

1. Search online for personalised Canvas Prints - and find a site you like

2. Choose a size canvas & materials

3. Upload your chosen image

The way they print on the canvas: Firstly the image is saved as a pdf or other compatible file, instead of paper they have a printer with a canvas real in it - the image gets sent to the printer from the computer to tell it what to print. This will then print like a normal printer (With ink) on to the canvas. When it is finished this will be trimmed to size and hand-finished in their studio for you.

Answer 8

Canvas prints are also known as canvas giclées. You can request that the print be made commercially from a digital format or do it yourself using a kit that you purchase. About thirty years ago, a friend experimented with a process using formaldehyde, which was a toxic way to make fuzzy prints.
