Let's say I have a 3470x2631 image I want to turn into a

You have to give them a size.

Print is 300DPI, so your image will look print-quality up to 11"x8", and blocky beyond that.

If you want it poster-size, maybe find a better copy?

>>325677
Wait, poster is a size already?
I just want a relatively nice looking print of the image.

what do you want? quality image or large image?
if you want quality image 300 dpi is good
if you want a large image they can scale it up infinitely but the quality will be bad when it goes down below 100dpi

>>325682
So what you say is I could have a good looking A3 sized image with that picture but it would get uglier.
I want a good looking mid sized one, I have around a metre on my wall for it in width.

>>325683
they will scale your picture up to fit it in a larger paper (or rarely reduce the dpi of the print)
So if you double the paper size there will be some quality loss (but I doubt you'd notice unless you look from close )

>>325691
Yeah, but how big is this picture exactly in centimeters?
(I'm know I sound retarded so please bear with me for a second)

>>325694
the picture doesn't have an exact size in centimeters anon
if you wanted to and if you had a magic printer you could make each pixel be 1cmx1cm and then the picture would be 34mx26m

but it would look like shit from close up, obviously

>>325700
This is too complicated for me.
So I just need to say what quality I want and they will do it that way.
I just don't want to say an exact width heigh number because I'm sure I would fuck up the ratios.

>>325691
you can print it at 100x?? cm it will look like a decent poster, not a high quality print

>>325703
no you say the size and they print at that size, we are just saying that it will look worse as the paper size grows

>>325707
Then tell me what would be a decent size for this. Has to look good up close too.
I have a meter wide wall for it. (Not necessary to fill it out completely )

>>325710
58.759 × 44.552 cm

>>325711
I will go for that then. (Does that distort the ratios?)

Thanks.

Are you Austrian or Hungarian?

>>326085
I'm Hungarian, but what does it matter to you?

>>326148
Just curious

>>326375
Hanging up a Greater Hungary map would be too patriotic and I don't want to be associated with the turulfaggots role-playing as horse archers.
And a small Hungary map has no reason to be up there and the Vienna awarda borders are simply associated with nazis too much.

This is nice and historical.

DPI = Dots Per Inch

The usual minimum DPI for print is 150, although for a poster you're not looking at too closely, 100 DPI could be okay.

The print size (poster size) is determined by the DPI, which YOU specify to the printer.

> @ 150 DPI
3470 pixels = 23.13 in. = 58.78 cm
2631 pixels = 17.54 in. = 44.55 cm

> @ 100 DPI
3470 pixels = 34.70 in. = 88.14 cm
2631 pixels = 26.31 in. = 66.83 cm

The 100 DPI dimensions above (~88x67 cm) are close to your stated size (circa 91 cm wide).

Reducing the DPI to 97 gets the print size to ~91x73 cm.
