Print Photos on 4x6 Paper

Lay out photos on 4 by 6 inch photo paper, 102 by 152 mm, and get a PDF ready for the photo tray. One photo per sheet fills it edge to edge on borderless printers; two or four make smaller prints.

How It Works

  1. Choose photos

    Pick up to 60 photos. When they do not fit on one sheet, the tool adds more sheets in the same layout.

  2. Pick paper and layout

    Choose the paper, how many photos go on each sheet, the margins, and whether photos fill their cell or show whole.

  3. Create and print

    Create the PDF, then download it or print it. In the print dialog keep the scale at 100 percent so sizes stay exact.

Why iPhone Photos Get Trimmed on 4x6

A 4x6 sheet has a 3:2 shape, the shape of most camera sensors. iPhone photos are 4:3, a little squarer, so filling the sheet trims about -12% of the photo, from the top and bottom of a landscape shot. Choose Show whole photo if every part matters: the photo then fits inside with white strips on two sides.

Many inkjet printers have a separate photo tray for 4x6 paper. Choose 4 x 6 in as the paper size in the print dialog too, otherwise the printer may expect Letter or A4.

Calculated by this tool: 10 mm margins, 5 mm between photos. With no margins the cells grow by the margin on each side.
