Photo size reference
Common photo print sizes and pixel dimensions
Print dimensions and camera aspect ratios do not always match, so a sharp image may still need cropping.
Popular sizes at 300 DPI
Use these as target dimensions before crop, bleed or border adjustments.
- 4 × 6 in — 1,200 × 1,800 px
- 5 × 7 in — 1,500 × 2,100 px
- 8 × 10 in — 2,400 × 3,000 px
- 11 × 14 in — 3,300 × 4,200 px
- 12 × 18 in — 3,600 × 5,400 px
Watch the aspect ratio
A typical 3:2 camera image fits 4 × 6 or 12 × 18 without cropping. An 8 × 10 print uses a 4:5 ratio, so part of the long edge must usually be cropped.
Allow for bleed
Commercial print products may require image content beyond the trim line. Add the printer's requested bleed before calculating final export pixels.
