Print Size Tips & Best Practices
Professional advice for getting the best results from your prints
Image Resolution Requirements
Always capture or work with the highest resolution possible for maximum print flexibility.
- • RAW files provide better quality than JPEG
- • Avoid upscaling low-resolution images
- • Consider the final print size when shooting
Aspect Ratio Considerations
Match your image aspect ratio to standard print sizes to avoid unwanted cropping.
- • 3:2 ratio works well for most photo sizes
- • Square images (1:1) are perfect for Instagram-style prints
- • Consider composition when cropping is necessary
Paper and Printing Quality
Choose appropriate paper types and printing methods for your intended use.
- • Glossy paper enhances color vibrancy
- • Matte finishes reduce glare and fingerprints
- • Professional labs offer better color accuracy
File Preparation
Properly prepare your files for optimal print results.
- • Use CMYK color profile for commercial printing
- • Include bleed areas for borderless prints
- • Check color calibration on your monitor
Cost Optimization
Maximize value while maintaining quality for your printing projects.
- • Batch multiple prints for better pricing
- • Consider standard sizes to reduce costs
- • Compare online vs local printing services
Display and Storage
Protect your prints for long-lasting quality and presentation.
- • Use UV-resistant glass for framing
