Print size & DPI calculator

See how large an image can print at a chosen resolution, then test the effective PPI at your intended width.

print width = pixels ÷ PPI

Reading the result

Quality is density at the final size.

300 PPI and above

Excellent for photos, books, and close viewing when the printer and source are both capable.

150–299 PPI

Often suitable for posters and everyday prints viewed from a normal distance.

Below 150 PPI

Can work for large-format pieces viewed farther away, but may look soft up close.
