Part 2 — Size
Bigger is not always better in the world of banners. The size of your banner must be appropriate for the viewing distance and the place it will be installed. We have all seen very tiny banners on the side of a large building that is totally unreadable unless you are standing right next to it. The reverse can be just as bad. Imagine having a 4′x8′ banner installed on a 8′x10′ wall. A banner should stand out from its surroundings and not be used as wallpaper.
A general rule of thumb is that you need 1″ of letter height for each 10′ of viewing distance. So if your banner will be viewed from 50′ away and you want 3 lines of text, you need 15″ just for the lettering not to mention “white space” separating the lines. I use a general rule that you should have the same amount of separation as you have print. In this example, that means a minimum of 30″ for a basic banner.
