Creating enlargements full of life from old prints

Enlarging your photos
Recommendation: For enlargements, HIGH resolution is highly recommended. High resolution scans collect the greatest level of detail from the original photos. Digital images created at this resolution can be reprinted many times larger than the original size without pixilation. View the table below to see the possibilities.
| Original | Optimal* | Maximum* |
|---|---|---|
| 4 x 6 (10 x 15 cm) | 8 x 12 (20 x 30 cm) | 12 x 18 (30 x 45 cm) |
| 5 x 7 (12.7 x 17.8 cm) | 10 x 14 (25.4 x 35.6 cm) | 15 x 21 (38.1 x 43.4 cm) |
| 8 x 10 (20.3 x 25.4 cm) | 16 x 20 (40.6 x 50.8 cm) | 24 x 30 (60.9 x 76.2 cm) |
| A4 (21.0 x 29.7 cm) | A2 (42.0 x 59.4 cm) | - (63.0 x 89.1 cm) |
| A3 (29.7 x 42.0 cm) | A1 (59.4 x 84.0 cm) | - (89.1 x 126.0 cm) |
| Slides (2.5 x 3.5 cm) | - (32.5 x 45.0 cm) | - (32.5 x 45.0 cm) |
| Negatives (2.5 x 3.5 cm) | - (32.5 x 45.0 cm) | - (32.5 x 45.0 cm) |
*The optimum enlargement size is based on HIGH resolution scans and a typical printer resolution of 300 dpi, the standard for most print centres (such as the Kodak Picture Kiosk).
The maximum enlargement size is based on the same printing resolution, with some minor pixilation (not normally visible at a typical viewing distance for a wall-mounted picture).
