Preparing a 16 x 20 wall print
A 16 x 20 print uses a 4:5 aspect ratio, the same shape as 8 x 10. At 300 DPI it requires 4800 x 6000 pixels, so source quality and device memory matter. At normal wall-viewing distance, a lower density may still be appropriate.
Frames and mats can cover the image edge. Keep faces, captions, signatures, and essential artwork inside the safe guide, and confirm bleed and color requirements with the print provider.
