Aspect Ratio Calculator
Use this free aspect ratio calculator to resize photos and artwork for printing while keeping the correct proportions. Simply enter your original dimensions, input a new width or height, and get the perfectly scaled size for your enlargement.
Determining Enlargement Size
When preparing a **photo enlargement** or printing a large-scale artwork, maintaining the correct aspect ratio ensures that the image doesn't get stretched or cropped incorrectly. This calculator helps by allowing you to enter one new dimension (width or height), and it will automatically calculate the other.
What is Aspect Ratio?
The **aspect ratio** of an image is the proportional relationship between its width and height. For example, a standard photograph with a 4:3 aspect ratio means the width is 4 units for every 3 units of height. Maintaining this ratio when resizing ensures that the image retains its original proportions.
