The target here is 560 × 315 px: a landscape (wide) 16:9 image of 0.18 megapixels. The preset fills in both dimensions for you, so you only need to add the photo and download the result.
Because the output size is fixed, the photo's own shape matters: if it is not 16:9, you either crop it or it gets distorted. The table below shows how much each common photo shape loses.
| Output size | 560 × 315 px |
|---|---|
| Aspect ratio | 16:9 (landscape) |
| Total pixels | 176,400 (0.18 MP) |
| Prints at 300 DPI | 1.9 × 1.1 in (4.7 × 2.7 cm) |
Fitting a photo into 560 × 315 px
Resizing to a fixed width and height only gives a clean result when the photo has the same shape as the target. A shape mismatch has two outcomes: the picture is stretched, or part of it is cropped. Crop first, then resize, so you decide what is cut. This is how much of each common photo would be lost to fill 16:9:
| Starting photo | Cropped away to fill the shape |
|---|---|
| Phone photo (4000 × 3000, 4:3) | About 25% of the image |
| DSLR photo (6000 × 4000, 3:2) | About 16% of the image |
| Video frame (1920 × 1080, 16:9) | Nothing: same shape |
| Portrait phone photo (3000 × 4000, 3:4) | About 58% of the image |
Size, quality and file weight
176,400 pixels saved as a JPG at web quality typically weigh about 17.23 KB to 51.68 KB, depending on how much detail the picture contains. Flat graphics and screenshots saved as PNG compress very well when colors are simple, and poorly when they contain photographic gradients.
For photos, JPG or WebP are good choices; for logos, text or transparency, PNG keeps edges clean.
How large can it be printed?
These figures follow from the pixel count: print size = pixels ÷ DPI. Going above the 300 DPI row gives no visible benefit; going below it looks softer.
| Quality | DPI | Print size |
|---|---|---|
| Screen-resolution draft | 72 | 7.8 × 4.4 in (19.8 × 11.1 cm) |
| Acceptable for posters | 150 | 3.7 × 2.1 in (9.5 × 5.3 cm) |
| Photo quality | 300 | 1.9 × 1.1 in (4.7 × 2.7 cm) |
