You might also see it called a presentation cheque, oversized cheque, big cheque or large cheque, the terms all describe the same large-format printed cheque. This guide covers everything Australian buyers need to know: standard sizes, what to fill in, board types, reusable versus one-off options, and how to set up for that perfect handover photo.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#faf6f1;border-left:4px solid #ac6f50;padding:16px 22px;margin:24px 0;border-radius:2px;\">\n<p style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-weight:700;letter-spacing:.04em;\">CHEAT SHEET<\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin:0 0 0 20px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">The most common size is 1000mm wide x 450mm high, fitting most indoor and outdoor event stages without being unwieldy.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Rigid board (5mm TEKpvc foamboard) is the go-to for a clean print surface and enough stiffness to hold shape during handover photos.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Every cheque needs six fields: date, payee name, amount in numerals, amount in words, presenting organisation name, and a signature line.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Order reusable if you run regular events; order one-off if the amount or recipient changes each time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2 style=\"margin:30px 0 10px;\">Standard Novelty Cheque Sizes in Australia<\/h2>\n<p>Most AU suppliers produce giant cheques in two size brackets.

If you need a different dimension, check the product page for custom sizing availability or contact the team before placing your order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to choose your size:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin:12px 0 12px 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Think about the distance between the presenters and the camera. A 1000mm cheque reads clearly from 3-5 metres. For venues wider than 10 metres, a 1400mm cheque gives the photographer more to work with.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Consider transport logistics. A 1000mm rigid board fits across the back seat of most sedans; a 1400mm board may need a wagon or ute tray.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Think about branding. Larger boards give more white space around logos and copy, making the design feel premium rather than crowded.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"margin:30px 0 10px;\">What Goes on a Novelty Cheque<\/h2>\n<p>A convincing novelty cheque mirrors the layout of a real banking cheque while scaling up the key elements. Most AU suppliers follow a standard six-field layout:<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">The six essential fields<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"margin:12px 0 12px 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Date<\/strong> &#8211; Top right corner.

For reusable cheques, this is often left blank to be signed at the event.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">Optional design elements<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"margin:12px 0 12px 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Memo line<\/strong> &#8211; Useful for noting the purpose: &#8220;Community Garden Fund 2026&#8221; or &#8220;Player of the Season.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Cheque number<\/strong> &#8211; Adds a realistic touch and can be tied to internal event numbering.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Bank logo or event logo<\/strong> &#8211; Many clients print a fictional bank name (e.g. &#8220;First National Sponsorship Bank&#8221;) for a polished, humorous feel.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Sponsor or co-presenter logo<\/strong> &#8211; Ideal when multiple brands are involved in the donation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Keep the font size on the amount generous: at least 80-100pt for the numeral figure so it photographs cleanly from 5+ metres.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;margin:32px auto;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/printshop.paperlust.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/giant-novelty-cheque-printing-inl1.jpeg\" alt=\"Close-up of a printed novelty cheque on rigid board showing full layout with logo, payee field, amount in numerals and words, and signature\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;display:inline-block;border-radius:4px;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin:30px 0 10px;\">Board and Material Options<\/h2>\n<p>The material your cheque is printed on determines its rigidity, print quality, and how well it holds up during the event.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">5mm TEKpvc foamboard (Paperlust standard)<\/h3>\n<p>Paperlust prints novelty cheques on 5mm TEKpvc foamboard: a rigid PVC foam core with a smooth, clean print surface. Compared to corflute (corrugated plastic), foamboard produces a noticeably sharper printed result because the surface has no flute texture. It is lightweight enough to hold comfortably during a two-minute handover, and stiff enough to stay flat without a frame or backing structure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Durability note:<\/strong> TEKpvc foamboard handles indoor conditions well and can manage a single outdoor event on a calm day. For events held in direct sun or wind, keep the board in its packaging until the moment of presentation.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">Corflute (industry alternative)<\/h3>\n<p>Some budget suppliers print on 5mm corflute. The corrugated internal structure makes it very impact-resistant and weather-tolerant, but the fluted texture is visible in close-up photography. For media-facing events where print sharpness matters, foamboard is the better choice.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">Laminated cardboard (Kwik Kopy-style)<\/h3>\n<p>A minority of local printers mount cheques on heavy cardboard and laminate the face. This keeps costs low but produces a lighter, less rigid result. Not suitable for outdoor use or events where the cheque needs to be held at arm&#8217;s length.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bottom line for most events:<\/strong> TEKpvc foamboard gives the best balance of print clarity, rigidity, and weight for a standard Australian charity or awards presentation.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin:30px 0 10px;\">Reusable vs One-Off Novelty Cheques<\/h2>\n<p>The answer depends on how often you run events and whether your amounts and recipients vary.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse:collapse;width:100%;margin:20px 0;\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;background:#f4ede4;text-align:left;font-size:14px;\">Use case<\/th>\n<th style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;background:#f4ede4;text-align:left;font-size:14px;\">Recommended approach<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">Annual charity gala, amount changes each year<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">One-off print with full details<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">Quarterly award presentations, same dollar value<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">Reusable base with blank amount field<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">Recurring sponsorship with fixed naming rights<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">Reusable with laminated write-on\/wipe-off surface<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">One-time prize presentation<\/td>\n<td style=\"border:1px solid #e0d9cf;padding:8px 11px;font-size:14px;vertical-align:top;\">One-off, no need for reuse spec<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Reusable options to discuss with your print supplier:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin:12px 0 12px 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Lamination over blank fields, allowing a dry-erase marker for the amount and payee.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Leaving the amount line and payee fields unprinted, with a write-on line instead.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Printing a base design with your logo and event branding, then adding a detachable printed insert for the variable fields.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For most one-off charity events, a full-colour single-use cheque printed at a fixed amount and recipient is the simplest and sharpest result.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;margin:32px auto;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/printshop.paperlust.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/giant-novelty-cheque-printing-inl2-1.jpeg\" alt=\"Two event presenters holding a large 1000mm novelty cheque at a corporate awards night, stage lighting, landscape orientation\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" style=\"max-width:100%;height:auto;display:inline-block;border-radius:4px;\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin:30px 0 10px;\">Lead Times and Ordering in Australia<\/h2>\n<p>Paperlust&#8217;s standard production time for novelty cheques is 3-4 working days after design proof approval.

Here is how to set up the handover moment for maximum impact.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">Positioning and framing<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"margin:12px 0 12px 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Hold the cheque at chest height, tilted 5-10 degrees toward the camera.<\/strong> Holding it flat (parallel to the floor) produces glare from overhead lighting.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Three is the magic number for presenters.<\/strong> One donor and one recipient looks transactional. Three people (donor, recipient, and a third stakeholder or emcee) creates a natural, celebratory grouping that crops well for portrait and landscape formats.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\"><strong>Hands under, not over.<\/strong> Presenters should grip the lower edge of the board, keeping fingers below the printed content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">Backdrop and lighting<\/h3>\n<ul style=\"margin:12px 0 12px 22px;\">\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">A plain, dark backdrop (navy or black drape) lets the cheque&#8217;s white face and colour printing pop in photographs. Busy branded walls compete with the cheque.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">Avoid positioning the cheque in front of bright windows or strong backlighting: the gloss face will catch lens flare.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:4px 0;\">If the venue has overhead spotlights, test the angle before the event. Move presenters forward (away from the backdrop) to keep the light falling on the front of the cheque rather than the top edge.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">After the handover<\/h3>\n<p>Store novelty cheques flat or standing upright (leaning against a wall, not face-in). Do not stack heavy items on top of foamboard: sustained pressure can bow the face. Kept dry and stored flat, a TEKpvc foamboard cheque will last for years as a keepsake or display piece.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"margin:30px 0 10px;\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">What is the standard size for a giant novelty cheque in Australia?<\/h3>\n<p>The most widely used size is 1000mm wide x 450mm high (approximately 100cm x 45cm). This size is large enough to photograph well at typical event distances and manageable for two people to hold comfortably. Some suppliers also offer a larger 1400mm x 600mm format for bigger stages or group presentations. Paperlust produces its novelty cheque at the 1000mm x 450mm standard.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">How much does novelty cheque printing cost in Australia?<\/h3>\n<p>A single Paperlust novelty cheque is $95.11 AUD (inc. GST), and the per-unit price scales down with quantity, dropping to around $27 each at higher volumes: if you need multiple copies for different arms of an event or to keep a duplicate as a display piece, per-unit cost decreases. Check the <a href=\"\/products\/novelty-cheques\" style=\"color:#ac6f50;\">novelty cheques product page<\/a> for a live quote based on your quantity.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">What material is a novelty cheque printed on?<\/h3>\n<p>Paperlust prints novelty cheques on 5mm TEKpvc foamboard, a rigid PVC foam core that delivers a smooth, clean print surface. This produces sharper results than corflute alternatives, which have a textured fluted surface that can show in close-up photography. The board is lightweight enough to hold comfortably during presentations while remaining stiff enough to stay flat without a frame.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">Can I get a blank or reusable novelty cheque?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, many suppliers including Paperlust can accommodate reusable cheques by leaving variable fields (amount, payee) blank or by applying a laminated finish that allows dry-erase marker use. Discuss your requirements at the order stage so the design is set up with blank fields in the right positions. If you run annual or quarterly events with different recipients each time, a reusable base design saves on repeat print costs.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">How early should I order a novelty cheque before my event?<\/h3>\n<p>For standard production, allow at least 10-14 days from order to delivery to be comfortable. Paperlust&#8217;s standard production time is 3-4 working days after design proof approval, with a 48-hour production option available for urgent orders. Add metro shipping time of 1-2 business days (express) or 2-5 business days (standard) on top of production. For regional deliveries, allow an extra 2-3 days.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin:24px 0 8px;\">What file format should I supply for novelty cheque printing?<\/h3>\n<p>Supply a print-ready PDF at 150-300 DPI, set up in CMYK colour mode with 3-5mm bleed on all edges. Outline or embed all fonts. Avoid RGB files (colours can shift at print) and Office application exports (they embed low-resolution assets).
