Photo Print Crop Tool
Prepare your photos for professional printing. Choose from standard print sizes, adjust position and zoom, check DPI quality, and export at 300 DPI resolution.
Prepare Photos for Printing with Precision
Sending photos to a print lab requires them to be cropped to exact dimensions. A 10x15 cm print has different proportions than a 20x30 cm or A4 sheet. If you send the wrong aspect ratio, the lab will crop your photo automatically and you lose control over which part gets cut.
This tool lets you pick the exact print format, position your photo within the frame, and zoom in or out to get the composition you want. The DPI quality indicator tells you whether your photo has enough resolution for a sharp print at that size.
Everything runs in your browser. Your photos are never uploaded to any server. When you are happy with the result, export all photos as a ZIP file at full 300 DPI resolution, ready to send to your print lab.
Standard Print Sizes for Professional Photography
Professional print labs worldwide use standardized sizes: 10x15 cm (4x6 inches), 13x18 cm (5x7 inches), 15x20 cm (6x8 inches), 20x30 cm (8x12 inches), A4, and A3. Each has a different aspect ratio, which means the same photo gets cropped differently for each size.
Wedding photographers and event photographers often need to deliver photos in multiple print sizes. A couple might want a 20x30 for the wall and 10x15 prints for family. With this tool you can prepare the same photo for different sizes and control exactly how each one is cropped.
The 300 DPI standard ensures your prints look sharp with no visible pixels. The quality indicator shows green when your photo has enough resolution, yellow when it is borderline, and red when the photo might look soft at that print size.

Frequently Asked Questions
What print sizes are available?
The tool includes standard photo lab sizes: 10x15 cm, 13x18 cm, 15x20 cm, 20x30 cm, A4, and A3. These cover the most common formats used by professional print labs worldwide.
What does 300 DPI mean?
DPI stands for dots per inch. At 300 DPI, each inch of your print contains 300 pixels, which is the industry standard for sharp, high-quality prints. Below 150 DPI, prints start to look soft or pixelated.
Can I prepare multiple photos at once?
Yes. Upload as many photos as you need, set the print format for each one, and export them all as a single ZIP file. This is ideal for wedding photographers preparing large delivery batches.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. All processing happens locally in your browser. Your photos never leave your device, which keeps client work private and secure.
What if the quality indicator shows red?
A red indicator means your photo does not have enough pixels for a sharp print at that size. You can choose a smaller print format where the same photo will have sufficient resolution, or accept that the print may appear slightly soft.
Can I use different print sizes for different photos?
Yes. Each photo has its own print format selector. You can prepare one photo for 10x15 and another for 20x30 in the same batch, then export them all together.
