Where to print and frame a PDF?

What service should I use to print and frame a PDF?

I have a PDF I want to have printed and framed for display. It's a PDF of the New York Times bestseller list. It's not a scanned copy of the print edition, but rather, a PDF of newspaper text formatted for printing.

Should I use a photo printing service like Shutterfly? Can they even print PDFs? Or is there a better option since it's newspaper text, not a photo?

Best answer: If you just want a simple print that you can frame yourself, you can take the PDF file on a USB stick to a FedEx Store with a printing desk (the former Kinko's stores), or Staples, or probably Office Depot. You can specify high quality stock rather than plain paper.

Or you can upload it to the FedEx printing website or Staples printing website and have it mailed back or pick it up at the store tomorrow.

Then any local frame shop can frame it.

But - anyone with a printer should be able to print the file.

CafePress has a poster-printing service, which produces nice framable prints in a standard size, and can work from an uploaded PDF.
