Pixels and Inches and Dimensions…

We get a lot of questions from those of you creating backgrounds in art class
with Photoshop or trying to determine if the image of your school will fit on
a full page.

Here’s a handy chart that gives dimensions in pixels and the size in inches that
the image (at 300ppi of course!) will print.

“Standard” yearbook pictures – slightly smaller-than-wallet size, are usually
640 x 480 or 2.13″ x 1.6″.

If you’re working with a Graduating class, you may want to use a larger, true
wallet-size image, which is 800 x 600.

Of course, we have templates for either of those in School Annual Online or you
can edit a template to utilize that size.

Check your Image Library on the Details tab of any image – you’ll see both pixels
and the Max Size in inches listed for your own reference.

The max upload size of an image is 10000 x 10000 pixels.
