A4 Paper Size
Set up an A4 document, choose a pixel canvas for print, or check how it compares with US Letter.
A4 size in pixels
Multiply each dimension in inches by the pixels per inch (PPI), then round to the nearest whole pixel.
| Resolution | Width × height |
|---|---|
| 72 PPI | 595 × 842 px |
| 96 PPI | 794 × 1,123 px |
| 150 PPI | 1,240 × 1,754 px |
| 300 PPI | 2,480 × 3,508 px |
| 600 PPI | 4,961 × 7,016 px |
Set up a document for A4
Use a 210 × 297 mm page for a portrait A4 document. For landscape, swap the dimensions. If a print shop asks for bleed, start with the A4 trim size and add the bleed the shop specifies. A file with bleed has a larger outer size than the finished sheet.
A4 and US Letter in the same workflow
A4 is narrower and taller than Letter. To keep the physical scale, use a file sized for the paper in the tray and print at 100%. Select Fit to scale to the printable area.
