Print sizes

Print papers come in a range of sizes. Not only that, their proportions, or 'aspect ratios', are different too. Snapshots are usually printed on 6" x 4" paper, and traditional darkroom print sizes include 7" x 5" and 10" x 8" sizes still used today. You can naturally get larger sizes still, and these will depend on your photo lab.

Aspect ratios and why you need to know about them

May 22, 2020 by Life after Photoshop

The aspect ratio of an image is the ratio of its width to its height. The larger the ratio, the ‘wider’ the image; the smaller the ratio, the ‘squarer’ the image.
