What is 8 × 10 at 300 PPI?

8 × 10 in portrait orientation is 2400 × 3000 pixels at 300 PPI. Landscape uses the same two values in reverse order.

What aspect ratio is 8 × 10?

8 × 10 uses a 4:5 aspect ratio. An image with a different ratio must be cropped, fitted with borders or placed inside the page.

Does the 8 × 10 pixel size include bleed?

No. The table uses final trim dimensions. Add the exact bleed required by the printer to both sides before calculating the full artwork canvas.

Why does an 8 × 10 crop a 4 × 6 photo?

A 4 × 6 is 2:3 while an 8 × 10 is 4:5. To fill 8 × 10 without borders, part of the longer dimension must be removed.

8×10 Photo Size: Pixels, Inches and Crop Ratio

8 × 10 photo measures 203.2 × 254 mm. Its pixel dimensions change with PPI; the physical trim size does not.

Quick answer

An 8 × 10 inch photo measures 203.2 × 254 mm and needs 2400 × 3000 pixels at 300 PPI. Its 4:5 aspect ratio is less wide than a common 3:2 camera image.

Crop warning

A 3:2 image loses about 16.7%

Filling an 8 × 10 frame with a 3:2 image retains about 83.3% of the image area. Reposition the crop to protect the subject.

16 × 20 uses the same 4:5 shape

Once an image is cropped to 4:5, it also fits a 16 × 20 frame by ratio—but the larger print needs more pixels for the same PPI.

Print setup

Trim first. Add production values second.

8 × 10 identifies the final physical format. Bleed expands the artwork beyond that edge; a safe margin moves important content inward. Those extra values depend on the print provider.
