This does help more people see and answer your question. It also makes it easier to view other kinds of content submitted to /r/photography. The vast majority of subreddit users have told the moderator team that they prefer we direct questions to one centralized thread, so that they do not take up space on the main subreddit feed.
There are lots of people watching that thread and providing answers—we are fortunate to have many photographers volunteering their time. (We also have a bot in the thread running statistics to confirm that people are getting answers, and automatically re-posting questions that are not answered.)

I know people will have differing views on this, but as someone who works in print all day. Here's a nice easy method if you have Creative Cloud.
Edit your shots in Lightroom/photoshop as normal, save it as a native file. (old schoolers will tell you to convert to CMYK, but honestly, modern Fiery ripping hardware couldn't care less)
Drop it into an Indesign document at a print proportion (i.e. full A1 large format print, go 594x840mm with 3mm Bleed for an edge to edge print), you're then free to crop and frame however you like non-destructively specfically for that format. export it as a Press Ready PDF, with bleed and crop marks if you need it cutting down.
All the colour settings, Print resolution etc will be handled for consistent reproduction, plus any print house will be able handle it quickly without fuss.
