How to use the DPI calculator

DPI (dots per inch) controls how sharp an image prints at a given size — the same pixel grid stretched over a bigger area gets softer. Pick a direction: give pixels and a DPI to see the print size, or give a target print size and a DPI to see the pixels you need. Switch between inches and centimetres, or drop an image below to read its pixel size automatically and see the biggest size it can print at 300 and 150 DPI.

Made for Etsy and Shopify sellers

Print-on-demand partners reject or silently downgrade files that don't clear their DPI requirement, and a design that looks crisp on screen can still print soft. Check your pixel dimensions against the size you're selling before you upload — then use the poster print resizer to actually fit your file to that size.

FAQ

What DPI should I use for print?
300 DPI is the standard for sharp, close-up prints like posters and framed art. 150 DPI is usually fine for large-format prints viewed from further away, like big canvases or banners. Below 100 DPI, prints start to look visibly soft or pixelated.
How do I convert pixels to inches?
Divide the pixel dimension by the DPI. A 3000 × 3000 px image at 300 DPI prints at 10 × 10 inches (3000 / 300 = 10). Lower the DPI and the same pixels stretch to a bigger, softer print.
Does my image get uploaded anywhere?
No. Dropping an image here only reads its pixel dimensions in your browser using the Image API — the file itself is never uploaded or sent to a server.
What size can I print my image at 300 DPI?
Drop your image into the calculator on this page and it works it out automatically — the biggest size at 300 DPI and at 150 DPI, both in inches and centimetres.
