PhotoSize Lab / Lay out ID photos for printing
Lay out ID photos for printing
A print shop charges per photo, yet a 6-inch sheet holds ten 1-inch copies. Generate a sheet with cut lines and print it yourself for pennies.
Three steps
1
Make the single photo first: size, alignment, background.
2
In the print panel pick 6-inch, 5-inch or A4 — the copy count is calculated for you.
3
Download the sheet and print at 100%, never "fit to page".
Sizes this applies to
1-Inch Photo
25 × 35 mm · 295 × 413 px
#FFFFFF
Standard 2-Inch Photo
35 × 53 mm · 413 × 626 px
#FFFFFF
Chinese Passport Photo
33 × 48 mm · 390 × 567 px
#FFFFFF
Large 1-Inch Photo
33 × 48 mm · 390 × 567 px

The sheet is rendered at 300 dpi. You can mix sizes on one A4 page, so plan the count before printing to save paper.
Questions
Why is the printed size wrong?
Usually "fit to page" scaling is on. Choose actual size / 100% and confirm the paper is set to 6-inch.
Should I keep the cut lines?
Yes — they are measured in millimetres, which beats eyeballing when you trim.
Can I use a home printer?
Yes, though inkjet colour differs from photo paper. For official documents, use a photo lab.
Other tools
Change your ID photo background
Swap white for blue, blue for white, red for light grey: upload, pick a colour, and the edges are feathered so hair and collars stay intact. Everything runs in your browser — the photo is never uploaded.
OpenCompress a photo to an exact file size
Portals that only accept 20 KB, 50 KB or 200 KB: type the target and the tool binary-searches JPEG quality, reducing resolution only when it has to — and telling you which happened.
OpenMake a 1-inch ID photo
A 1-inch photo is 25×35 mm, or 295×413 px at 300 dpi. Pick the size, align the head, export exact pixels — or lay out a 6-inch sheet holding ten copies for a print shop.
