Exact pixel count, color space, and file prep for 11×14 prints.
MA By Mac · 3 min read · · Updated

An 11×14 print is a large wall art size, ideal for making a statement on a gallery wall or office space. It's 40% larger than 8×10, maintaining the same 4:5 portrait ratio. At 300 DPI (print-ready quality), an 11×14 print requires exactly 3300×4200 pixels.

This size works across all print-on-demand platforms and is popular for Etsy sellers offering multiple frame sizes. Use our DPI checker to verify your file, or our pixel calculator to resize.

The exact answer

An 11×14 print at 300 DPI (print-ready quality) requires 3300×4200 pixels. This larger size makes a bold statement and is popular for high-end wall art and gallery spaces.

Why this matters

11×14 is a professional "statement" size — larger and more impressive than 8×10, but not as massive as 16×20 or 24×36. If you upload 3300×3300 (square) instead of 3300×4200 (portrait), your print will be cropped or matted with white borders. Exact pixel count (3300×4200 @ 300 DPI) ensures your large print comes out sharp, perfectly proportioned, and gallery-ready.

When you'd use this

You're preparing an 11×14 print in these scenarios:

  1. Upselling wall art on Etsy. Offer 8×10, 11×14, and 16×20 as price-tiered options. Many customers want to buy larger, higher-impact versions.
  2. Gallery walls and office spaces. 11×14 makes a bold visual statement on a wall without being overwhelming. Perfect for offices, living rooms, and commercial spaces.
  3. Museum-quality reproductions. Art lovers and collectors prefer larger, more detailed prints. 11×14 at 300 DPI shows fine details.
  4. Resizing from a larger original. If you have a 6600×8400px original, resize to 3300×4200 for an 11×14 without losing quality.

Common mistakes

These errors cause 11×14 prints to look bad or get rejected:

1. Uploading 3300×3300 (square) instead of 3300×4200 (portrait)

You'll get a cropped square print or white borders. Always maintain the 11:14 aspect ratio.

2. Forgetting the DPI stamp

3300×4200 pixels but metadata says 72 DPI. Print shops reject or upscale. Always stamp 300 DPI using our DPI fixer.

3. Using upscaled or low-resolution source

11×14 at 300 DPI requires a decent source. Upscaling from 1650×2100 (72 DPI) to 3300×4200 (300 DPI) causes blurriness. Start with at least 1650px on the longest edge.

4. Not accounting for mat opening

If framed with a mat, the mat opening hides 0.125–0.5 inches on all sides. Important designs should stay 36px away from edges.

5. Forgetting color space conversion

Etsy needs sRGB; print shops want CMYK. Most now accept sRGB, but confirm with your printer first to avoid color shifts.
