1,800 × 1,200 pixels in inches at every common resolution
The physical size depends entirely on the density you print or display at — these are the values people look up most.
| Resolution | Width × height in inches | In centimetres |
|---|---|---|
| 72 PPI | 25 × 16.667 | 63.5 × 42.333 |
| 96 PPI | 18.75 × 12.5 | 47.625 × 31.75 |
| 150 PPI | 12 × 8 | 30.48 × 20.32 |
| 300 PPI | 6 × 4 | 15.24 × 10.16 |
| 600 PPI | 3 × 2 | 7.62 × 5.08 |
How the conversion works
Inches are found by dividing the pixel count by the pixel density: inches = pixels ÷ PPI. For 1,800 × 1,200 pixels at 96 PPI that is 1,800 ÷ 96 = 18.75 and 1,200 ÷ 96 = 12.5.
1,800 × 1,200 is exactly a 6 × 4 photo print at 300 DPI.
Printed at 300 DPI it covers 6 × 4 inches; on a 96 PPI screen the same pixels span 18.75 × 12.5 inches.
That is 2.16 megapixels in total, in 3:2 proportion. In metric the 300 DPI print measures 15.24 × 10.16 cm.
Frequently asked questions
How many inches is 1,800 × 1,200 pixels, a 6 × 4 photo print at 300 DPI?
18.75 × 12.5 inches at 96 PPI, 12 × 8 inches at 150 DPI and 6 × 4 inches at 300 DPI. Divide the pixels by the density you are using.
What size does 1,800 × 1,200 pixels print at 300 DPI?
6 × 4 inches, which is 15.24 × 10.16 cm. 300 DPI is the standard for photo and magazine printing.
What is 1,800 × 1,200 pixels in centimetres?
47.625 × 31.75 cm at 96 PPI, or 15.24 × 10.16 cm at 300 DPI.
Should these pixels be printed at 300 DPI?
Yes, if the print is held or read close up. At 300 DPI they cover 6 × 4 inches, which is what that standard is for. At 150 DPI the same pixels stretch to 12 × 8 inches and the softening shows in the hand.
Is 1,800 × 1,200 a 3:2 ratio?
Yes, and 3:2 is the shape of a 4 × 6 print, so it fills one edge to edge with nothing cropped.
What is the largest standard print 1,800 × 1,200 pixels will make at 300 DPI?
A 4 × 6 photo print. 2.2 megapixels is 6 × 4 inches at 300 DPI, which covers a 4 × 6 photo print with the rest as margin or crop.
