Input reference and sample values
Use the units and choices shown for each field. Sample values are provided for practice, not as recommendations.
| Input | Format and units | Sample |
|---|---|---|
| Image width | Whole numbers only. Minimum: 1. Maximum: 100000. | 6000 |
| Image height | Whole numbers only. Minimum: 1. Maximum: 100000. | 4000 |
| Print resolution | Numeric value. Unit: pixels/inch. Must be greater than zero. | 300 |
Result for these sample inputs
20 in wide
- Height (in)
- 13.3333333
- Width (cm)
- 50.8
- Height (cm)
- 33.8666667
Select Try the example in the form to load these values and calculate them again. This replaces the current form inputs. Compare the result with the method and worked explanation below.
The method, explained
Printed inches = pixel dimension/pixels per inch.
Using image width = 6000, image height = 4000, print resolution = 300 pixels/inch, the result is 20 in wide. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.
What to keep in mind
An ideal geometric or exposure estimate. Lens behavior, stabilization, sensor crop and scene conditions may change practical results.
