## Verify five ratio archives
Each approved package contains five ZIPs for 2:3, 3:4, 4:5, 11×14, and ISO A-series. Products 18 and 26 contain six customer JPGs per ZIP; product 25 contains three.
## Verify the Mediterranean pixels
Product 18 records 4896×7344, 3672×4896, 4896×6120, 2244×2856, and 4772×6754 pixels in ratio order, with a 204-DPI production target.
## Verify the abstract and landscape pixels
Products 25 and 26 record 5760×8640, 4320×5760, 5760×7200, 2640×3360, and 5614×7946 pixels in ratio order, with 240-DPI production targets.
## Apply archive-limit warnings
Every approved package retains one archive-limit notice. The production target reflects packaging constraints and does not promise output size, sharpness, color, detail, or durability.
## Apply source-upscaling warnings
Every artwork-ratio record says the source was upscaled and should be reviewed at print size. Added pixels do not promise recovered detail or cleaner edges.
## Apply crop-adjustment warnings
The packages record approximately 11.1 percent for 3:4, 16.7 percent for 4:5, 15.2 percent for 11×14, and 5.6 percent for ISO A-series.
## Keep customer and preview files separate
Print from customer ZIPs and JPGs. Listing galleries, styled rooms, frames, mats, walls, furniture, and scale scenes are previews or mockups, not customer files, physical products, or placement proof.
## Confirm digital-only delivery
No physical print, frame, mat, glazing, paper, ink, printer, hardware, furniture, styling prop, or shipment is included.
## Compare three frames with six
Three frames require fewer openings, gaps, hardware points, and sequence decisions than six. File count alone does not establish value or wall fit.
## Calculate a three-frame row
Add three measured outside frame widths and two measured gaps. Compare the total with usable wall width, furniture, openings, heat, moisture, electrical paths, and movement.
## Calculate a six-frame row
Add six measured outside frame widths and five gaps. Full-size templates can expose excessive width or compressed spacing before installation.
## Calculate a two-by-three grid
Add three outside widths plus two horizontal gaps; add two outside heights plus one vertical gap. Include mats, moulding, hardware, and clearance.
## Calculate two rows for the triptych
If the triptych is not a single row, measure the exact two-row arrangement rather than assuming a generic stagger or stack.
## Record usable wall bounds
Measure the wall area that remains after doors, switches, vents, lamps, furniture, heat sources, moisture zones, electrical paths, and impact routes are excluded.
## Measure focal-mass scale
Estimate the largest connected high-contrast or saturated region with one grid method. Compare its fraction of the visible opening after crop and mat overlap.
## Measure horizon continuity
Mark the strongest horizontal or horizon-like band in each file. Across multiple frames, record whether bands align, alternate, or intentionally break.
## Measure palette concentration
Estimate how much area the largest color family occupies. This describes visual distribution, not exact color, mood, culture, place, or room effect.
## Measure open area
Estimate low-detail space around dominant forms or horizons. Recalculate after crop and mat overlap without promising calm, spaciousness, or accessibility.
## Measure edge activity
Count important forms and lines approaching each boundary. More edge activity can make ratio crop and mat overlap more visible.
## Measure background value
Sample broad light, middle, and dark areas with one method. Printer, paper, profile, glazing, wall, and light can change separation.
## Compare Mediterranean-coastal-like cues
Record arch-like, vessel-like, shoreline-like, stripe-like, or blue-and-warm fields only as visible cues. They do not establish geography, culture, architecture, travel, or provenance.
## Compare bright-abstract-like cues
Record dominant blocks, curves, overlaps, and saturated fields. Abstract-like does not establish movement, artist, medium, process, emotion, or authenticity.
## Compare vintage-landscape-like cues
Record horizon-like bands, silhouette-like forms, color layers, and depth cues. Vintage-inspired and landscape-like do not establish age, place, period, artist, or documented scene.
## Sequence the coastal-like set
Compare horizon height, focal position, palette concentration, value, and edge activity across six files. Test more than one order with measured gaps.
## Sequence the landscape-like set
Compare horizon continuity, depth cue, silhouette scale, color layers, and edge rhythm. Preserve named source identity for every position.
## Sequence the abstract triptych
Compare focal mass, negative space, edge direction, palette concentration, and value balance. Do not infer a narrative unless the files establish one.
## Test thumbnail recognition
Reduce each arrangement to a search-like preview and record whether frame count, focal mass, horizon pattern, and value distribution remain distinguishable.
## Test nearest sightline
At the closest ordinary viewing distance, inspect edges, fine detail, crop, resampling artifacts, paper texture, and glazing reflections.
## Test farthest sightline
At the farthest planned sightline, record which masses, horizons, silhouettes, and frame sequences remain distinguishable without promising universal recognition.
## Proof the largest focal mass
Choose the broadest dominant region and inspect internal separation, paper response, crop, glazing, wall contrast, and far-distance recognition.
## Proof the weakest horizon
Choose the palest or least-separated horizon-like band and test it on intended paper under representative light.
## Proof the darkest field
Choose the broadest dark region and inspect shadow separation, banding, paper response, glare, and adjacent-frame balance.
## Proof the palest boundary
Choose the weakest light-to-light edge and inspect it after export, print, crop, mat overlap, glazing, and representative room light.
## Proof the busiest edge
Choose the most boundary-active file and compare every offered ratio before committing to crop or mat opening.
## Proof the strongest crop risk
Use the 4:5 ratio, which carries the largest recorded adjustment, on the most edge-active candidate and check every focal form and line ending.
## Measure mat overlap
Use the actual visible opening. Mark hidden width and verify that no important mass, horizon, silhouette, or pale boundary enters it unintentionally.
## Test wall contrast
Compare pale edges, dark fields, and dominant backgrounds against measured light, middle, and dark wall samples without inferring accessibility or exact color.
## Test glazing and glare
Place a representative proof behind intended glazing and inspect reflections from normal sightlines and light sources before installing the full arrangement.
## Correct one measured variable
If footprint, gap, horizon, crop, mat, contrast, glare, or distance fails, change one supported variable before testing again.
## Reprint from a named source
Record product, artwork, ratio, filename, revision, printer or service, paper, settings, and date. Never print from a preview or screenshot.
## Reopen before reuse
Close and reopen the ZIP, JPG, crop proof, print file, and wall plan. Verify product, artwork, ratio, pixels, DPI target, crop, revision, and frame assignment.
## Archive the exact delivery
Retain all fifteen ZIPs, ninety customer JPGs across the two six-print sets, fifteen JPGs for the triptych, manifests, warnings, proofs, measurements, layouts, and notes.
## Restore before depending on backup
Restore to a temporary location and verify ZIP counts, JPG counts, filenames, hashes, pixels, ratios, warnings, crop choices, and revision identity.
## Compare adjacent frame-count evidence
The [celestial, abstract, and landscape guide](/blog/celestial-six-bright-abstract-three-vintage-landscape-six-frame-count-value-horizon) adds value-range and horizon checks for the same three-versus-six workload.
## Compare setting and object rhythm
The [Mediterranean, fruit, and landscape guide](/blog/mediterranean-gallery-retro-fruit-kitchen-colorful-landscape-room-object-horizon) adds object, room-signal, and horizon decisions.
## Compare coastal and landscape rhythm
The [coastal and landscape guide](/blog/mediterranean-coastal-colorful-landscape-neutral-beach-horizon-rhythm-palette) adds horizon-rhythm and palette controls.
## Plan a measured gallery wall
The [gallery-wall planning guide](/blog/how-to-plan-a-cohesive-gallery-wall-with-printable-art) adds templates, frame measurements, gaps, wall bounds, and sightlines.
## Choose mat and frame dimensions
The [mat and frame guide](/blog/how-to-choose-a-mat-and-frame-size-for-printable-art) separates nominal labels from image ratio, visible opening, overlap, and outside footprint.
## Protect privacy
Remove names, addresses, order details, private room photos, wall measurements, device identifiers, and collaboration links from shared evidence.
## Confirm license boundaries
Review current product terms before sharing, transfer, resale, redistribution, upload, or modification. Do not distribute source files or lightly modified digital versions.
## Follow manufacturer-led production safety
Follow current software, printer, service, ink, paper, cutter, electrical, tool, ventilation, PPE, cleanup, and disposal instructions.
## Follow manufacturer-led display safety
Follow current frame, mat, glazing, hardware, anchor, wall, load, ladder, electrical, tool, PPE, installation, cleanup, and disposal instructions.
## Keep labels descriptive
Mediterranean-like, coastal-like, bright-like, abstract-like, statement-like, vintage-inspired-like, colorful-like, and landscape-like describe visible directions only, not place, culture, era, artist, medium, origin, or provenance.
## Reject outcome promises
Color, horizon, focal mass, frame count, and placement do not promise mood, wellness, audience fit, accessibility, exact color, print quality, framing fit, decor effect, durability, or commercial results.
## Expect result variation
Upscaling, crop, ratio, printer, ink, paper, profile, trim, mat, glazing, frame, wall, light, hardware, installation, distance, recovery, and operator choices can change results.
## Final buyer checklist
Confirm product, price, three or six artworks, five ZIPs, exact JPG counts, pixels, DPI targets, warnings, customer/preview separation, frame count, wall footprint, focal mass, horizon continuity, palette concentration, open area, edge activity, crop, mat overlap, wall contrast, glare, sightlines, sequence, proofs, reprint, reopen, restore, privacy, license, digital-only delivery, safety, descriptive limits, and variation.
