Why Calculate CM to PX?

Often, print shops request designs to have exact physical measurements like 10cm x 15cm. If you work in digital design software such as Figma or Photoshop, knowing the equivalent in pixels is crucial to avoid low-resolution fuzzy prints.

How DPI Changes Everything

At 72 DPI (web display), 5 centimeters is approximately 142 pixels. At 300 DPI (print standard), that exact same physical size requires 591 pixels. The higher the DPI, the greater number of pixels you need to fill the same space smoothly.

How Big is 1 Pixel in Centimeters?

There is no single answer because it depends on the screen's DPI! At a standard 96 DPI screen resolution, one pixel equals roughly 0.026458 centimeters.
