How to use it

  1. Enter size, orientation and resolution.
  2. The result appears straight away and updates as you edit.
  3. Copy the result, or copy a link that keeps the same values to share it.

How it is calculated

Dimensions come from the ISO 216 table in mm. Inches = mm ÷ 25.4, and pixels = inches × DPI rounded to the nearest pixel.

Example

Inputs: Size = A4, Orientation = Portrait, Resolution = 300 DPI. Result: Size in millimetres: 210 × 297 mm; Width: 21 cm; Height: 29.7 cm.

Limits and caveats

  • Dimensions are nominal; the standard allows small cutting tolerances of about 1.5 to 2 mm.
  • Pixel counts are rounded to the nearest whole number.

Questions about this tool

What is A4 in centimetres?

A4 is 21 × 29.7 cm, which is 210 × 297 mm.

How many pixels is A4 at 300 DPI?

About 2480 × 3508 pixels, the usual target for sharp printing.

How do A3 and A4 relate?

Each size is half the one before it: fold A3 once and you get A4, and the ratio stays 1 to the square root of 2.
