Use this page to prepare a picture for a 85.6 × 54 mm print. The size equals 3.37 × 2.13 in, and in pixels it is 1011 × 638 at the 300 DPI usually used for sharp prints.

This size corresponds to ID-1 card (credit card / ID card, ISO/IEC 7810).

85.6 × 54 mm in pixels

Pixels = size in inches × DPI. DPI is a printing instruction, not a quality setting: it says how many pixels are spread over each inch of paper. With the DPI field on Auto, ResizeAny converts at 96 DPI, which suits screens. For print, set 300 DPI. JPG and PNG output stores the DPI value in the file.

Will your photo be sharp enough?

A 12-megapixel phone photo (4000 × 3000) has more than the 1011 × 638 pixels this size needs at 300 DPI, so it can be printed sharply with room left to crop.

Needed source resolution: 0.6 megapixels or more at 300 DPI.

Matching the 16:10 shape

The output is 16:10. If your photo has another shape, it has to be cropped or it will be stretched. This is how much of each common photo is lost when cropped to fill 16:10:

How to resize an image for id card

1. Add your image. Select a photo or drag it onto the box above. JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC and BMP files are accepted, and the file stays on your device.
2. Set the resolution. The preset fills in 85.6 × 54 mm. Leave DPI on Auto to convert at 96 DPI, or enter 300 DPI for print so the file has enough pixels for a sharp result.
3. Crop if the shape differs. The target shape is 16:10. If your photo is a different shape, crop it first so the print is not stretched.
4. Download and print at 100%. Save as JPG or PNG; the DPI value is stored in the file. Print at 100% scale, not "fit to page", so the physical size stays exact.
