Silver Image Print Preflight

DPI, Print Size & Artwork Resolution Checker — right-click any JPG, PNG, WebP or TIFF and instantly see whether it has enough resolution for professional printing, from A6 flyers to A0 posters.

What it shows

• exact pixel dimensions, megapixels, orientation and aspect ratio
• effective DPI at every ISO A-series size (A0–A6)
• a clear verdict per size: Excellent / Good / Acceptable for large-format / Low / Not recommended
• the recommended maximum print size
• a deterministic print-readiness score (0–100) with the formula shown
• a warning when proportions will not fit an A-series sheet without cropping

Privacy

Your file never leaves your machine. Dimensions are read from the file header by the extension itself — nothing is uploaded, no telemetry, no tracking of any kind.

Usage

• Right-click a supported image in the Explorer → Silver Image: Check File for Print
• or run the same command from the Command Palette and pick a file.

Rule of thumb

300 DPI is the standard for material read at arm's length. Banners and posters viewed from a few metres stay sharp at 150 DPI. Acceptable resolution always depends on viewing distance, artwork type and source-image quality.
