Frequently asked questions.

What is the standard size for a wanted poster?
Popular poster sizes are 11” x 17”, 18” x 24”, and 20” x 20”, although you can make a wanted poster any size you’d like. Easily create both vertical and horizontal event posters for all your marketing needs.
What should be included in a wanted poster template?
Some wanted poster essentials are a headshot (or mugshot) of the subject, a reward amount, and of course, a bold header that says “wanted.”
What makes a wanted poster stand out?
Adding an artistic touch to your wanted poster will help it stand out. Add a sepia or black and white filter to your headshot to make it feel aged. Choose a vintage-style font to help with that. Select a textured or stained background to give your poster a weathered feel. If you print it out, you can even soak it coffee, wrinkle it, or lightly burn the edges to enhance the authenticity.
Can I create my own wanted poster template?
Any new or existing project can be turned into a shareable template. To turn your wanted poster into a template, click on the three-dot menu at the left of the Download button and follow the steps to turn your design into a template.
