What this calculator does

The Pixels to Print Size Calculator tells you how large you can print a digital photo while keeping it sharp, based on its pixel dimensions and your target print resolution.

How the calculation works

Print size in inches is simply the pixel dimension divided by the target resolution in dots per inch (DPI): width in inches = pixel width ÷ DPI, and the same for height. A common professional standard is 300 DPI for sharp close-up prints, while 150-200 DPI is usually acceptable for posters and images viewed from further away. The result is also converted to centimeters by multiplying inches by 2.54.

This is a general planning calculator. Perceived sharpness also depends on viewing distance, print material, and the printer itself, so treat these numbers as a reliable starting guideline rather than an absolute limit.
