Print quality and DPI

STIL LAB recommends 300 DPI at the size you print. Every size can still be printed below it; a smaller size or a higher-resolution file will be sharper.

Steps

1. Open Photographs and open a photograph.
2. Open File and print quality under the photograph.
3. Read the table: each print size, with your file’s resolution at that size.

Good to know

• DPI here is your file’s pixels spread over the printed size. The same file has a lower DPI at a larger size.
• A size below 300 DPI says so, for example “below the recommended 300 DPI”. It still prints. A size well below it also says that a smaller size or a higher-resolution file will be sharper.
• The product builder shows the same note under each size, and on the preview of the piece you are looking at. The size can still be sold.
• Your photograph prints at every size. A size of another shape is cropped to fit, centred, and the table says so beside that size.
• For the best prints, choose the full-size file when you upload.
