Resize a Photo to 8 × 10 Inch (2400 × 3000 px)
8 × 10 is the classic portrait-frame size | at 300 DPI it needs a hefty 2400 × 3000 pixels, so start from your largest original.
Open the MM resizerBig prints expose small files: a 12-megapixel phone photo (4000 × 3000) covers 8 × 10 at 300 DPI comfortably, but anything cropped hard or shot at lower resolution will look soft across a 254 mm sheet.
The resizer crops to the exact 4:5 aspect with focus control and scales to 2400 × 3000 px with high-quality smoothing, then stamps real 300 DPI metadata. If your source is smaller, it upscales honestly | pair it with our AI Photo Enhancer afterwards to recover edge sharpness.
For canvas or poster prints where labs ask for 150 DPI, type the same millimetres and switch the DPI dropdown | the pixel target halves and the file stays lighter.
