Print Size Calculator
Summary
Print size: 3000 x 2400 px; pixels: 3000 x 2400 px; effective DPI: 300; verdict: close-view sharp
Details
- Formula: inches = pixels / DPI
- Megapixels: 7.2 MP
- Rounding: pixel dimensions are rounded to whole pixels.
Warnings
- DPI metadata alone does not add real pixels.
- Viewing distance and print material affect perceived sharpness.
- Use printer specifications when they differ from this estimate.
Formula used
inches = pixels / DPI, pixels = inches × DPI, and effective DPI = pixels / print inches.
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.
