What is A5 at 300 PPI?

A5 in portrait orientation is 1748 × 2480 pixels at 300 PPI. Landscape uses the same two values in reverse order.

What aspect ratio is A5?

A5 uses a 1:√2 aspect ratio. An image with a different ratio must be cropped, fitted with borders or placed inside the page.

Does the A5 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.

Is A5 exactly half of A4?

A5 is half the area of A4 and keeps the same 1:√2 aspect ratio. Its standard trim is 148 × 210 mm; the one-millimetre rounding in the ISO series is intentional.

A5 vs A4

One A4 sheet folds to two A5 pages

A5 has half the area of A4 and keeps the same ISO 1:√2 shape. This makes it practical for booklets, notepads and folded handouts.

Bleed example

A5 with 3 mm bleed

Adding 3 mm on every edge creates a 154 × 216 mm canvas, equal to 1819 × 2551 pixels at 300 PPI after rounding.

Print setup

Trim first. Add production values second.

A5 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.
