Frequently Asked Questions

Click any question below for detailed information about Image DPI Checker

What is DPI and why is it important for printing?

DPI stands for Dots Per Inch, measuring the density of ink dots printed on paper. While screen displays typically use 72 to 96 PPI, professional commercial printing requires 300 DPI for sharp, grain-free prints.

How does Image DPI Checker detect my photo resolution?

The tool parses binary EXIF and JFIF header tags directly from your file in the browser, identifying original horizontal and vertical resolution tags without modifying your file.

Is 300 DPI required for official documents and photos?

Yes. Most government passport authorities, photo studios, book publishers, and art printers require a minimum of 300 DPI to avoid pixelation.

Are my uploaded images kept secure and private?

Yes, 100%. Analysis runs completely client-side in your web browser. Nothing is ever uploaded to any cloud server.
