Digital Services
Don't let your memories fade by printing at home. Unlike other photo labs or online
photo processors we individually color correct every image giving you better looking
pictures. Your digital pictures won’t fade because we print them on real photographic
paper that gets chemically processed. Order online and save time and money.
We got the latest technology to make your digital prints look great. There are now
NINE different ways to have your digital images printed at Montclair 1-Hour Photo (six
of them are online).

have all current digital camera adapters. Depending on quantity, you can get your
prints in 1 to 24 hours. Bring in your files or transfer them online and get high quality
prints on real photographic paper. We color correct, saturate, and adjust the contrast
levels so you can have a richer picture. For print sizes and image quality see our
Resolution Guide. Send us your digital images from home. There are many ways to
Upload Your Order online for FREE. Our printer supports TIFF's, JPG's, Kodak CD's,
and digital camera formats.
Digital File Setup Guide
In order for us to provide consistent quality results from your digital image files, we
need to create some standards by which files are created and organized prior to
delivery to our lab. By following these guidelines, your order be completed in a more
timely manner. We have our auto-color correction feature turned off. Each image is
manually color corrected before it is sent to the printer. This gives you better quality
prints.
Digital Camera Media:
We are able to print from Compact Flash (CF), Smart Media (SM), Memory Stick (MS),
Secure Digital (SD or MM), XD, mini CD, and Floppy. Just drop off the media card or
use our Kiosk in our lobby to select your images.
Acceptable file formats are JPEG (.jpg) and TIFF (.tif) only.
Do not write any files back to the card from your computer.
We cannot make prints from video clips
Most people find prints made from files with a resolution of 480x640 unacceptable.
We recommend a minimum file resolution of 1200x1600 for quality 4x6 prints. The
higher your resolution and
the finer the compression your images will look better.
CD, ZIP disks and online file delivery:
We accept CDs , ZIP 100/250 (PC & Mac), and files through our website. Upload Your
Order by (FTP, Drop Box, etc.)
Image files must be JPEG or TIFF (please indicate if your media is MAC format).
All files must be saved in RGB color (8 bit) and not have any layers, alpha channels,
paths or LZW compression. Some times Photoshop 7 jpegs will not print.
File names must have only one period (.) followed by jpg or tif . There cannot be any
apostrophes (‘) or exclamation points (!).
Files should be sized properly to the print size requested to avoid cropping.
We may charge extra to fix or convert your images to the correct format.
For photographic quality results, resolution should be 300 ppi at print size.
CDs with Organized File Folders (OFF System):
For faster turn around, please use the following.
The JPEG and TIFF standards listed above must be met.
