Technically, it is possible but the canvas printed out will be blur and low-quality. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reality is that what looks clear on screen might be low resolution when printed out on a canvas because our digital screens (ie. tablet, desktop and mobile phone) are considered low-resolution devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means that the images you view on your device would not need to be high resolution to appear clear and crisp on screen. On the other hand, when you view that same image on a physical canvas, you might notice that the image looks more pixelated and grainier than the former.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where I always recommend for my customers to have a clear idea of how they want to use their photographs so that I can recommend the best resolution for them. For instance, if they want an 8&#8243;x12&#8243; (3600px x 2400px 300Dpi) portrait, I\u2019d propose going with S8R resolution like this one below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/ohdearstudio.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/S8R-floating-frame.jpg\" alt=\"S8R resolution 8&quot;x12&quot; image\" class=\"wp-image-2308\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Likewise, if they want a relatively smaller 5&#8243;x7&#8243;, (2100px x 1500px 300DPI image), I\u2019d go with 5R resolution. See the image below for the size difference:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/ohdearstudio.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Photo-Print-Oh-Dear-Studio.jpg\" alt=\"5R resolution 5&quot;x7&quot; image\" class=\"wp-image-2309\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;Sounds pretty techy, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read on as I\u2019ll be debunking these technicalities so that you get a better understanding of resolutions to make a more informed decision with your pictures!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_87_1 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/ohdearstudio.com.sg\/the-ultimate-guide-to-soft-copy-resolution\/#Explaining_%E2%80%98Resolution\" >Explaining \u2018Resolution\u2019<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/ohdearstudio.com.sg\/the-ultimate-guide-to-soft-copy-resolution\/#%E2%80%9CWhy_Would_a_Clear_Soft_Copy_look_Blur_on_a_Canvas%E2%80%9D\" >\u201cWhy Would a Clear Soft Copy look Blur on a Canvas?\u201d<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/ohdearstudio.com.sg\/the-ultimate-guide-to-soft-copy-resolution\/#Our_Solution\" >Our Solution<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Explaining_%E2%80%98Resolution\"><\/span><strong>Explaining \u2018Resolution\u2019<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you ever noticed how increasing or zooming in the size of an image on your computer makes it look blur and grainy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To understand why this happens, I need to first explain what the term \u2018resolution\u2019 means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a nutshell, resolution refers to the \u2018detail that an image holds\u2019. This means, the higher the resolutions, more detailed your image will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Resolution is measured in DPI (dots per inch) for physical images and PPI (pixels per inch) for digital ones. These terms can be used interchangeably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Images on the computer are contained in pixels and changing the image size would change the size of the pixel. Your image looks poorer in quality when you enlarge it with your computer because you are essentially increasing the size of each individual pixel. Think of it as stretching a rubber band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the flip side, print resolution leverages a vector format where the images are converted to a mathematical formula. Unlike pixels and dots, moving or scaling these vectors do not degrade the quality of the image. Take a close look at the 3 printed images below; they might be of different sizes, but the quality of the images is consistently crisp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/ohdearstudio.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Rose-Gold-Frame-1.jpg\" alt=\"3 printed images with consistent quality\" class=\"wp-image-2311\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In that respect, projecting a photograph from my desktop onto a big canvas would essentially require each dot per inch to expand.&nbsp; That\u2019s why a physical canvas looks poorer in resolution relative to the image you see on my computer screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%9CWhy_Would_a_Clear_Soft_Copy_look_Blur_on_a_Canvas%E2%80%9D\"><\/span><strong>\u201cWhy Would a Clear Soft Copy look Blur on a Canvas?\u201d<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, I\u2019m not saying that you won\u2019t be able to print a physical canvas from a soft copy. It <em>is <\/em>possible to print, but the implication here is that you might encounter a relatively fuzzy image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A 5&#8243;x7&#8243; soft copy (2250pixel x 1500pixel 300DPI) might look blur when printed as a 24&#8243;x36&#8243; canvas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reasons for this are that computer screens are misleading. They are low-resolution devices and therefore, do not display the most accurate clarity. Likewise, printed images would require more DPI for the same level of clarity as what you observe on a digital screen. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, you are stretching a 5\u201dx7\u201d to five times it\u2019s size. Think of it as over-stretching a rubber band or over-diluting a bowl of soup.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

to speak to me about how you intend to use your images.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you want a 28\u201d inch canvas or or a standard 5R Photo Print&nbsp;(see image below for
