About This Calculator
Printed size is the number of pixels divided by the print resolution (DPI — dots per inch).
This calculator divides your pixel dimension by the chosen DPI to give the maximum print size, in inches, centimetres, and millimetres, and also shows a typical good-quality print size for reference.

Frequently Asked Questions
What DPI should I use?
A general guide: 300 DPI for crisp text/graphics, 150–200 for good photo prints, and 72–96 for web/screen. Choose based on viewing distance.
What is the difference between DPI and PPI?
PPI (pixels per inch) is the image resolution; DPI (dots per inch) is the printer output. In practice they are treated as interchangeable for sizing purposes here.
