Before using the Inches to Pixels Converter, it’s important to understand a few key concepts based on your needs—whether you’re working with web design (CSS), print media, or determining device screen dimensions.
If you’re working with the web, converting pixels to inches follows a standard rule: 96 pixels per inch (PPI), as defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). This is the default PPI for web usage. You can skip ahead to the converter if this is your case.
For print design, PPI (Pixels Per Inch) and DPI (Dots Per Inch) play crucial roles in determining the clarity and resolution of printed images.
Example: An 8" x 10" image at 72 PPI will appear blurry when printed, whereas the same image at 300 PPI will be much sharper and professional-looking.
If you want to determine the physical size of a device, like a smartphone or monitor, you can use the Pixels to Inches Converter. You need the PPI value (e.g., 400 PPI) and the screen resolution (e.g., 1080 x 2340 pixels) to calculate the actual size in inches.
To manually convert pixels to inches, use the following formula:
Easily convert inches to pixels for web design, print media, or device dimensions using this simple and accurate tool.
Before converting inches to pixels, determine the PPI (Pixels Per Inch), also known as DPI (Dots Per Inch) or Resolution, of your device or printer.
For web design, 1 inch equals 96 pixels (PPI). However, for print media, you need to check your printer's DPI (Dots Per Inch).
