Does anyone know how pixels translate into resolutions for print? I'm buying some stock photography, and am given the options of different sizes. The larger the size (resolution), the more the image costs. I need some images for my website, and others for print material.
How do I convert the image pixel sizes into sizes I can use for print (ie. photos, posters, business cards, letterhead, etc.)?
Good question. A website is typically between 640 and 1000 px wide. So there's no need to purchase anything wider than that for the website. As far as print material, a standard quality is usually 300 DPI (dots/ inch). A 1200x900 px photo will print at 4x3" at 300 pixels/ inch. 2400x1800 will give you 8x6", etc.

Hi,
I understand that the pixels of an image determines the resolution right? The more pixels that are, it means that the image is of a higher resolution.
However, I've come across pictures that have high DPI but very little pixels and it is clearer than a picture that has more pixels but less DPI.
From what I understand, DPI is only used in print because it's dots per inches. So what is then considered as a high resolution photo?
Please advise! Thanks!
