How the Print Size from Pixels Calculator works
Print dimension = pixels ÷ dpi. 300 dpi suits close-up prints such as books and photo albums, while 150 dpi or lower is fine for large posters viewed from a distance. Cropping reduces the pixel count, so run this on the cropped dimensions. One inch is 2.54 cm. Example: A 6000 × 4000 px image prints 50.8 × 33.9 cm at 300 dpi.
