How can I tell if my photo quality is good enough to print?
There are lots of factors that affect photo quality — including the camera you used, your settings, focus, lighting, compression, and more. But when it comes to printing your Photo Book, the most important factor is usually image resolution.
As a general rule:
If your camera or smartphone is 6 megapixels or higher, and you've taken your photos at the highest resolution setting, you're probably good to go.
Most photos taken on modern smartphones will work well in our editor — especially for smaller images or collage-style layouts.
Watch for quality warnings in the editor:
If a photo is too low in quality for the space it's covering on your page, the editor will display a red triangle with an exclamation mark in the centre of the image. This means the photo might appear grainy or pixelated when printed.
If you see this warning, we recommend either:
Using a higher quality version of the photo, or
Reducing the size of the image on the page until the warning disappears.
By following these tips, you’ll ensure your photos look their best when printed!
