DPI and Pixels Explained
DPI (dots per inch) tells a printer how many pixels to print per inch. It does not change how many pixels the picture has. The same picture prints large at low DPI and small at high DPI.
| Pixels | 72 DPI | 150 DPI | 300 DPI | 600 DPI |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 600 × 800 px | 21.2 × 28.2 cm | 10.2 × 13.5 cm | 5.1 × 6.8 cm | 2.5 × 3.4 cm |
| 1200 × 1600 px | 42.3 × 56.4 cm | 20.3 × 27.1 cm | 10.2 × 13.5 cm | 5.1 × 6.8 cm |
| 2480 × 3508 px | 87.5 × 123.8 cm | 42.0 × 59.4 cm | 21.0 × 29.7 cm | 10.5 × 14.9 cm |
Tips for Best Results
- Changing only the DPI label does not add detail. If you need more pixels, choose the resize option.
- Aim for 300 DPI for print and 72 to 96 for screens.
Limits and Things to Know
- DPI is a label. It does not make a low-resolution picture sharper.
- Other formats (WebP, GIF) are converted to JPG first.
