Frequently asked questions
What DPI should I use for printing?
300 DPI is a common target for close-view prints. Larger posters viewed from farther away can often use 150 to 200 DPI.
Is DPI the same as PPI?
PPI describes image pixels per inch. DPI usually describes printer output. In many layout tools people use the terms together when checking print resolution.
