How this tool works

What it does

Resizes to print size × DPI and writes the DPI into JPG (JFIF) and PNG (pHYs) files.

Fit

Contain keeps the whole image; Cover fills the rectangle and may crop edges.

WebP note

Browsers cannot write DPI into WebP; the result panel says so.

Privacy

Resizing, encoding and DPI tagging all happen in your browser.

Image DPI Converter in your browser

Image DPI Converter resizes an image to the exact pixel dimensions a chosen print size and DPI require, and writes that DPI into the output file so print software reads it correctly. For JPG it sets the JFIF density; for PNG it writes a pHYs chunk.

Enter the print width, height and target DPI, and the tool renders the image at print-size × DPI pixels. Choose Contain to keep the whole image or Cover to fill the print rectangle, which can crop the edges.

Output as JPG, PNG or WebP, with a quality control and a background colour for JPG. Browsers cannot write DPI into WebP, which the result panel states clearly.

How to use Image DPI Converter

  1. Upload the image you want to prepare for print in Image DPI Converter.
  2. Enter the print width, height and target DPI, and choose Contain or Cover.
  3. Pick an output format (JPG and PNG also get the DPI written into the file).
  4. Click Process, check the output size and embedded-DPI note, then download.

Why use Image DPI Converter

Writes real DPI

Sets JFIF density for JPG and a pHYs chunk for PNG so print software reads the right DPI.

Exact print pixels

Renders at print size × DPI, e.g. 1200 × 1800 for 4 × 6 in at 300 DPI.

Contain or cover

Keep the whole image, or fill the print area knowing edges may crop.

Format & quality

JPG, PNG or WebP output with quality and JPG background controls.

Common uses for Image DPI Converter

Frequently asked questions

Does Image DPI Converter actually write DPI into the file?

Yes. For JPG it writes the JFIF density fields and for PNG it writes a pHYs resolution chunk, so print apps read the DPI you chose. Browsers cannot write DPI metadata into WebP, which is stated in the result.

What pixel size does Image DPI Converter produce?

Print size multiplied by DPI. For example 4 × 6 inches at 300 DPI produces a 1200 × 1800 pixel image, resized from your original.

Will Image DPI Converter crop my image?

Only if you choose Cover, which fills the print rectangle and may trim edges. Contain keeps the whole image visible and is the default; the result panel records which fit was used.

Can Image DPI Converter output PNG to keep transparency?

Yes. Choose PNG (or WebP) to preserve transparency. JPG output flattens transparent areas onto the background colour you pick.

Is my image uploaded to convert its DPI?

No. The image is resized, re-encoded and tagged with DPI entirely in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.
