A favourite European size for desks, shelves and gifts — close to 5×7 in. 13x18 cm is a 13:18 shape, so a typical phone photo (3:4) loses about 4% from the sides. It prints at actual size at home, 2 per US Letter sheet or 2 per A4 sheet.
How many pixels is a 13x18 cm photo?
Pixels per inch decide how sharp a print looks. Here's what a 13×18 cm print needs (portrait; swap the numbers for landscape). Pixels = inches × DPI.
| DPI | Pixels | Megapixels | How it looks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 300 | 1,535 × 2,126 | 3.3 | Sharp, even up close |
| 240 | 1,228 × 1,701 | 2.1 | Good — a little softer up close |
| 150 | 768 × 1,063 | 0.8 | Lowest we'd go — fine from across the room |
| 72 | 369 × 510 | 0.2 | Screen only — too low to print |
Will a phone photo fit a 13x18 cm frame?
13×18 cm is a 13:18 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 13×18 cm frame |
|---|---|
| Phone photo (3:4) | Trims about 4% from the sides |
| Camera photo (2:3) | Trims about 8% from the top and bottom |
| Screenshot or video still (9:16) | Trims about 22% from the top and bottom |
| Square photo (1:1) | Trims about 28% from the sides |
Which frames and mats fit a 13x18 cm print?
Fits a 13 × 18 cm frame, or an 18 × 24 cm frame with a 13 × 18 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 13x18 cm prints
What size should a photo be for a 13×18 cm frame?
For a print that's sharp even up close, 1,535 × 2,126 pixels — that's 300 DPI. At 1,228 × 1,701 (240 DPI) it's still a good print, a little softer up close, and 768 × 1,063 (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 13×18 cm frame?
Most phone photos are 3:4, so about 4% is trimmed from the sides to fill a 13×18 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 13×18 cm at home?
Yes. Download the print-at-home page: your photo is placed at exactly 13 × 18 cm (5.1 × 7.1 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 2 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 13×18 cm the same as 5×7 in?
Close, but not quite: 5 × 7 in is 12.7 × 17.8 cm, a few millimetres smaller, and a slightly different shape. A 5×7 print sits in a 13 × 18 cm frame with a hair of room; for a snug fit, make the 13 × 18 cm file.
What is 13x18 cm in inches?
13 × 18 cm (130 × 180 mm) is about 5.1 × 7.1 in. Frames are sold by exact size, so match the frame's label rather than a near inch equivalent.
