Custom Frame - if you are having the print custom-framed, tell us the image size and frame size

Ready Made - if you are using a ready-made frame, tell us image size, frame size, and mat opening size

 
 

Example:

You have a 14” x 11” print to go into a matted 20” x 16” frame

“Frame size” (also called “Paper size”) is the total size of the media that fits in the frame - 20” x 16” in this example

“Image size” is the size of the image itself - 14” x 11” in this example

The border is the space that the mat covers

Above example : 14”x11” image on 20” x 16” paper
