Standards first, pixels second

Start with the real sheet size.

PaperSize keeps the source dimensions visible: ISO A-series sizes use their stated integer millimetres, while Letter and Legal use exact inch bases. Choose a PPI value to calculate a whole-pixel canvas with the rounding shown. Nothing is uploaded, resized, or stored.

Three explicit choices

From standard sheet to pixel canvas

01

Choose the paper format

Select A4, A3, A5, Letter, or Legal and review its canonical millimetre or inch base.

02

Set the image PPI

PPI links pixels to physical inches. PaperSize does not assume one density is right for every printer or viewing distance.

03

Review and copy the result

See the formula, unrounded values, nearest whole pixels, and portrait or landscape order before copying.

Five finite references

Use the named format, not a guessed canvas

  • A4, A3, and A5 keep their ISO integer-millimetre dimensions visible before conversion.
  • Letter and Legal start from exact inch dimensions instead of rounded metric substitutes.
  • The A4-versus-Letter comparison explains why equal-looking office pages can still crop or reflow.

Worked print canvases

An A6 postcard and Tabloid poster show metric rounding, exact inch multiplication, and what the answer does not promise.
