Why Choose Backlite Film?
Regular prints go dark and blotchy when you put a light behind them. Backlite film is engineered for exactly that job: the matte white polycarbonate diffuses the light evenly, colors stay saturated instead of washing out, and the flexible film rolls into any sign cabinet or snap frame without cracking. If it lights up, this is the material to print on.
Made-to-Measure for Your Light Box
Every lightbox is different, so our custom printed backlite signs are cut to your exact dimensions – just enter the width and height from your cabinet or frame in the builder. The film installs easily, and replacement graphics are as simple as reordering the same size.
Options
- Custom size – enter any width up to 300″ and height up to 52″ (larger? contact us)
- Simple square-foot pricing – $6.00 per sq ft, calculated live
- PMS color matching – exact brand colors on request
- 150 DPI artwork check – built into the builder with a one-click upscaler
Simple Square-Foot Pricing
Custom printed backlite signs are priced at a flat $6.00 per square foot – no sheet math, no minimums. A 4 ft x 2 ft lightbox panel is just $48, and the builder shows your exact total the moment you enter a size.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it work in my existing lightbox?
Yes – measure the visible opening (or the old insert) and enter those dimensions in the builder. The flexible film fits cabinets, snap frames, and channel systems.
Why not just print on regular material?
Standard prints block and blotch the light. Backlite’s diffusion layer spreads it evenly so the graphic glows uniformly – that’s the difference between amateur and professional illuminated signage.
What artwork should I upload?
High-resolution PNG, JPG, PDF, or vector files at 150 DPI or better – see how to prepare your logo file. Vibrant, saturated colors backlight best.
