Pixels to Inches Converter
Convert pixels to inches (and back) at any DPI resolution.
How pixels and inches relate
Pixels are only a physical size once you know the resolution, measured in dots per inch (DPI) or pixels per inch (PPI). Dividing pixels by DPI gives inches; multiplying inches by DPI gives pixels. Screens are commonly 96 DPI while print work is usually 300 DPI, so always set the DPI to match your output.
