The standard photo-print size in Europe and much of the world — albums, desk frames and fridge doors. 10x15 cm is a 2:3 shape, so a typical phone photo (3:4) loses about 11% from the sides. It prints at actual size at home, 3 per US Letter sheet or 2 per A4 sheet.
How many pixels is a 10x15 cm photo?
Pixels per inch decide how sharp a print looks. Here's what a 10×15 cm print needs (portrait; swap the numbers for landscape). Pixels = inches × DPI.
| DPI | Pixels | Megapixels | How it looks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300 | 1,181 × 1,772 | 2.1 | Sharp, even up close |
| 240 | 945 × 1,417 | 1.3 | Good — a little softer up close |
| 150 | 591 × 886 | 0.5 | Lowest we'd go — fine from across the room |
| 72 | 283 × 425 | 0.1 | Screen only — too low to print |
Will a phone photo fit a 10x15 cm frame?
10×15 cm is a 2:3 shape. Here's roughly how much is trimmed when a photo fills the frame (turned the same way as the frame). Prefer to keep everything? Choose Fit whole photo and add a border instead.
| Your photo | In a 10×15 cm frame |
|---|---|
| Phone photo (3:4) | Trims about 11% from the sides |
| Camera photo (2:3) | Fits exactly — nothing is cropped |
| Screenshot or video still (9:16) | Trims about 16% from the top and bottom |
| Square photo (1:1) | Trims about 33% from the sides |
Which frames and mats fit a 10x15 cm print?
Fits a 10 × 15 cm frame, or a 13 × 18 cm frame with a 10 × 15 cm mount (passe-partout).
Mat openings are usually about ¼ in (6 mm) smaller than the print on each side, so the edges tuck behind the mat — keep faces and words away from the very edge. The tool shows that strip as a dashed line.

Frequently asked questions about 10x15 cm prints
What size should a photo be for a 10×15 cm frame?
For a print that's sharp even up close, 1,181 × 1,772 pixels — that's 300 DPI. At 945 × 1,417 (240 DPI) it's still a good print, a little softer up close, and 591 × 886 (150 DPI) is the lowest we'd go — fine from across the room. FrameReady makes the file at the right size for you.
Will my phone photo fit a 10×15 cm frame?
Most phone photos are 3:4, so about 11% is trimmed from the sides to fill a 10×15 cm frame. Drag the photo to choose what stays, or pick "Fit whole photo" to keep everything and add a border instead.
Can I print 10×15 cm at home?
Yes. Download the print-at-home page: your photo is placed at exactly 10 × 15 cm (3.9 × 5.9 in) on Letter and A4 paper, with cut marks and a bar you can measure to check the size. Tick "Fill the page" to get 3 on Letter or 2 on A4. Print at 100% (“Actual size”), not “Fit to page”.
Is it really free and private?
Yes. Your photo never leaves your device — everything happens in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, there's no sign-up and no watermark.
Is 10×15 cm the same as 4×6 in?
Almost. 10 × 15 cm is 3.9 × 5.9 in, a few millimetres smaller than 4 × 6 in (10.2 × 15.2 cm). Both are the 2:3 shape, so the same photo fits either without extra cropping — pick the size printed on your frame.
What is 10x15 cm in inches?
10 × 15 cm (100 × 150 mm) is about 3.9 × 5.9 in. Frames are sold by exact size, so match the frame's label rather than a near inch equivalent.
