A PPI (Pixels Per Inch) checker calculates pixel density for print quality verification. Check image resolution to determine if photos have enough pixels for professional printing at your desired size. Higher PPI values produce sharper prints, while lower PPI causes pixelation and blur. Upload JPG, PNG, or WebP images to see if resolution meets printing standards like 300 PPI for photos or 150 PPI for posters.
Upload any image to view pixel dimensions and file size. Adjust the print size slider to your desired dimensions in inches or centimeters. The PPI calculator instantly shows pixel density and quality rating. For professional photo printing, aim for 300+ PPI. Poster printing accepts 150-200 PPI since they're viewed from distance. If PPI is too low, either reduce print size or use a higher resolution image source.
Professional labs recommend 300 PPI minimum for photo prints up to 16x20 inches. Magazine and book printing uses 300 PPI for photographs. Large format posters work at 150 PPI because viewing distance compensates for lower density. Billboard graphics need only 20-50 PPI due to far viewing distance. Web images display at 72-96 PPI since screens can't show higher densities. The PPI checker helps verify your image meets requirements before ordering prints.
Use the PPI calculator before ordering canvas prints, photo books, wedding albums, or professional publications to avoid disappointment. Check smartphone photos before printing - modern phones capture 12+ megapixels sufficient for 8x10 prints at 300 PPI. Verify product photography meets marketplace standards like Amazon's 1000 pixel minimum. Test if cropped images retain enough resolution after editing. Calculate maximum print size for scanned documents or vintage photos.
A 3000x2000 pixel image prints at 10x6.67 inches at 300 PPI, or 20x13.3 inches at 150 PPI. Doubling print dimensions quarters the PPI. The calculator shows both print width and height based on your image's aspect ratio - landscape photos print wider, portraits print taller. Switch between inches and centimeters to match your region's measurement standard. The PPI checker processes images client-side for instant results without uploading to servers.
| PPI Range | Quality | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 300+ | Excellent | Professional photo prints, magazines, brochures, photo books |
| 150-299 | Good | Large posters, canvas prints, casual photo prints |
| 100-149 | Acceptable | Banners, signs, large format prints viewed from distance |
| Below 100 | Poor | Not recommended for printing - may appear pixelated |
