Which resolution do you need?
- 72 DPI: quick previews and thumbnails.
- 150 DPI: sharp on any screen, presentations and web pages.
- 300 DPI: printing, zooming into details, posters and high-quality social posts. A Letter or A4 page becomes about 2,500 × 3,300 pixels.
JPG or PNG?
JPG keeps files small and is ideal for pages with photos. For pages that are mostly text, diagrams or line art, PNG keeps every edge perfectly crisp. Switch the format in the options.
