About the US Paper Sizes to Pixels conversion

US paper sizes are defined in inches rather than millimetres. Letter (8.5 × 11in) is the everyday standard, alongside Legal (8.5 × 14in), Tabloid (11 × 17in), and the ANSI A–E engineering series.

Because these sizes are already in inches, converting to pixels is a single multiplication by the DPI: px = inches × DPI. At the 96 DPI screen reference, Letter becomes 816 × 1056px; at 300 DPI it is 2550 × 3300px.

Pick a size and resolution to get its exact pixel width and height, with the full US-size table shown alongside — ideal for setting up print-ready documents and canvases in a design tool.
