Question
How do I know if my image is high enough resolution before ordering?
Answer
Divide your image's pixel width by 300. The result is the widest it can print sharply, since 300 dots per inch is the standard for crisp print.
| Source image width | Max sharp print width |
|---|---|
| 1,500 px | 5 in |
| 3,000 px | 10 in |
| 6,000 px | 20 in |
- In Photoshop, check Image then Image Size to see pixel dimensions
- On your computer, right-click the file and open its properties or info panel
- Aim for 300 DPI at the final printed size, not the on-screen size
- Vector artwork scales to any size without losing sharpness
