Print Size Checker

Drop a photo in and see how large it prints before it softens — every standard size from 4×6 to 24×36, plus exactly which part of the picture each crop removes.

Why size and shape both matter

Two things decide whether a photograph survives being printed large: how many pixels it actually has, and how much of the frame the print shape throws away first.

A camera records 3:2. An 8×10 is 5:4. A fifth of your long edge is gone before the paper is even loaded.

Your image never leaves your device. There is no upload and no server involved — the file is decoded by your own browser, measured, and discarded when you close the tab.

Your photo never leaves this device. There is no upload — the file is decoded by your own browser, measured, and forgotten the moment you close the tab.

What this tells you

How large it can go. Every standard size from 4×6 up to 24×36, marked against the two thresholds that matter: 300 dpi for a print you will hold, 150 dpi for one you will walk past.

What the crop costs. A camera shoots 3:2. An 8×10 is 5:4. Something has to go, and it is usually the part of the frame you liked. The preview shows exactly which part.

Whether the file has been through something. A photo that has been messaged, re-saved, or pulled off social media will often come back at a fraction of the resolution it started with. This is the quickest way to find out before you order.
