1200 x 1200 pixels: uses, aspect ratio and how to resize
1200×1200 pixels is a high-resolution square that covers several important rules at once. Amazon enables its zoom feature for images of at least 1000 px on the longest side, LinkedIn recommends 1200 × 1200 for square image posts, and it is the maximum size of a digital US passport photo. At 300 DPI it also prints at 10.2 cm (4 in): enough for small photo prints and product cards.
A 1200 × 1200 image holds 1,440,000 pixels (1.44 MP). Saved as a JPG at the default 90% quality, a typical photo at this size weighs roughly 250 to 560 KB; logos and flat graphics are usually lighter. In print, 1200 pixels span 4 in (10.2 cm) at 300 DPI, or 8 in (20.3 cm) at 150 DPI.
What 1200 × 1200 pixels is used for
- Amazon, Etsy and Shopify product photos: above Amazon's 1000 px zoom threshold.
- LinkedIn square posts: the recommended 1200 × 1200 size for image posts.
- Passport and ID photos: the upper limit (600 to 1200 px) for digital US passport photos.
- Small prints: about 10.2 cm square at 300 DPI.
How to resize an image to 1200 × 1200 pixels
- Drop your images on the box, click to choose them, or paste one with Ctrl+V (JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, GIF, BMP, TIFF, SVG; up to 80 MB each).
- The size is preset to 1200 × 1200 px with Crop to fill; choose which part to keep (center, top, bottom, left or right) or switch to Fit with background or Stretch.
- Pick the format: Original, JPG, PNG, WebP or AVIF (in browsers that can encode it), and set the quality, or switch to Target size and enter a limit in KB.
- Drag the before/after slider on the preview; every change is re-rendered live.
- Click Download, or Download all (ZIP) for several files, named like photo-1200x1200.jpg.
Turning a non-square photo into 1200 × 1200
Phone and camera photos are usually 4:3 or 3:2, so a square needs a decision. Take a 4000 × 3000 shot: Crop to fill scales it to 1600 × 1200 and trims about 200 px from the left and right edges. Fit with background keeps the whole picture at 1200 × 900 and fills 150 px above and below with white, black, grey, any colour or transparency (PNG, WebP, AVIF). Stretch squeezes it to 1200 × 1200, which distorts faces, so keep it for images that are almost square already. With Fit, the Don't enlarge smaller images option centres a small source at its own size instead of blowing it up.
Tips for 1200 × 1200 images
- Amazon's main image must be on a pure white background (RGB 255, 255, 255): choose Fit with background → white when the product does not fill the frame.
- The product should fill about 85% of the frame for marketplaces; crop tight with the Center position.
- For print, set 300 DPI under More options so the file opens at the right physical size.
Everything runs in your browser: images are never uploaded, and there is no account, no watermark and no limit on the number of files. Under More options you can write a DPI value into JPG and PNG files or change the file-name pattern, and location and camera data (EXIF) are always removed.

Frequently asked questions
