Size & fit

Start with a 6 × 4 inch landscape print. Choose Fit or white margins so the frame and caption are not cropped.

Resolution

At 300 pixels per inch, 6 × 4 inches needs 1800 × 1200 pixels. Use a full-resolution original for larger prints; the sample is resized.

Final check

Check spelling, margins, and orientation in print preview. Print one proof before ordering more. Add a handwritten note on the back to make it personal.
