Limits and warnings
- Changing DPI metadata does not create new pixels.
- Printer, paper, sharpening, compression, and viewing distance affect perceived quality.
- Platform specs can change; official printer, KDP, Etsy or print-shop templates should be your final check.
FAQ
Is 300 DPI always required? No. 200–240 DPI can be acceptable for many prints, and 150 DPI can work for posters viewed farther away.
Do these tools upload files? No. Image checks run in your browser and are not uploaded.
