How to choose the right print template

Start from the final product, not from the current image file. A photo print, poster, canvas, and marketplace preview can all need different dimensions even when they use the same source artwork.

Use case	Common sizes	Typical DPI	Check before export
Photo print	4 × 6, 5 × 7, 8 × 10 in	300 DPI	Keep aspect ratio exact before ordering
Art printable	8 × 10, 11 × 14, A4	300 DPI	Export a clean PDF/JPG at final size
Poster	12 × 18, 18 × 24, 24 × 36 in	150–300 DPI	Use 300 DPI for premium close-viewed posters
Canvas	8 × 10, 12 × 16, 16 × 20 in	150–300 DPI	Account for wrap or mirrored edges
Marketplace listing image	Platform-specific pixels	Screen size	Do not confuse preview images with print files

Template size versus uploaded image size

A template gives you the target canvas. Your uploaded image still needs enough pixels to fill that canvas at the selected DPI. After choosing a template, use the Print Size Calculator to check your current file or the Image Resizer for Print to create the final pixel dimensions.

How it works

Browse sizes by category.
Read the pixel dimensions each size needs.

Each size's pixel dimensions are computed as width or height in inches × DPI.

FAQ

Where do these sizes come from?

They're commonly used sizes for photo prints, posters, canvas prints, and marketplace/print-on-demand listings (Etsy, Redbubble, and similar). Always check your specific print provider's exact requirements before ordering.

Which DPI should I use for print templates?

Use 300 DPI for close-viewed products such as photo prints, art prints, cards, and stickers. Use 150 DPI for larger posters or wall art that will be viewed from farther away.

Should I design at the exact print size?

Yes, start with the final physical size plus any required bleed. Then convert that size to pixels using the DPI your print provider expects.

Are social media sizes the same as print sizes?

No. Social media templates are screen-first pixel dimensions, while print templates depend on physical inches or centimeters and DPI.
