Jim,

I've used Peak Imaging, but they're not the cheapest, and I've been
chatting recently to Matlock Copy Centre, whose service looks very
promising.

As there is an interest in landscape photography on this forum, I
though I'd ask the question here:

Any recommendations for companies for getting large prints made, say
A1/A0, ideally having a downloadable printer profile so I can
soft-proof the image before uploading? Asda have a comprehensive list
of services - anyone have any experience?

No experience of their printing service, and they may not be as large as
you're looking for, but 7DayShop on Guernsey are doing 30 x 20s for £16.

Used BonusPrint for mostly 10 x 8 and the quality as been superb. A couple
of years ago, I had two images of Everest from my old 2.1 mgp Kodak printed
at 15 x 10, and again the quality was good considering the image size.

at 20x30 I've used both pixum(£11.99) and photobox(£16.99), both have lots
of offers, eg pixum is 20% off £20+ at the moment, I paid £7 for the
photobox ones on their offer at the time.

I prefer the photobox ones, just because they can print matt, which is
better at not reflecting light when in a clipframe.

Photo quality is key at that size, you must have a 5Mb+ image, preferably
7Mb+, even the slightest imperfection is visible at that size.
