Is there a standard size of A4 paper in pixels?
Dimensions of A4 paper are 210mm × 297mm or 8.27in × 11.69in.
For 600dpi resolution, I calculate the paper size in pixels like below:
In imperial system:
Horizontal size = (8.27in) x (600 pixels/in) = 4962 pixels
Vertical size = (11.69in) x (600 pixels/in) = 7014 pixels
In metric system:
Horizontal = ((210mm) / (25.4mm/in)) x (600 pixels/in) = 4960.6299 pixels ≅ 4961 pixels
Vertical = ((297mm) / (25.4mm/in)) x (600 pixels/in) = 7015.7480 pixels ≅ 7016 pixels
In this answer and this forum, it is said to be 4960 x 7016 pixels
.
Why don't these numbers hold? What is the true dimensions of A4 paper in pixels in different resolutions?
Also, the tolerance is +- 2mm in both dimensions, which is a lot more than one pixel. – James K – 2017-09-18T20:29:39.153
