About FeetToPixels

Who's behind FeetToPixels?

FeetToPixels is built and maintained by a small team with hands-on experience sizing artwork for print and display, from photo prints to LED video walls. We've prepped files for trade-show booths, building wraps and retail signage, and we've seen the same mistake on repeat: people guess a pixels-per-foot number, send the file off, and it comes back soft or pixelated.

That's the gap this site fills. We built FeetToPixels so anyone can get the correct pixel dimensions without a print background. We review the formulas and the guidance ourselves, and we keep the tools matched to how presses, large-format printers and LED panels actually work today. If something doesn't add up, you're welcome to reach out and we'll take a look.

How do we calculate?

Here's the short answer: every tool shows its formula in plain view, so you don't have to trust a black box. Length to pixels uses pixels = inches x DPI, and we convert feet at 12 inches per foot. LED walls use pixels = feet x 304.8 / pixel pitch in millimeters, because 304.8 is the number of millimeters in a foot.

We verify each formula against the standards the industry already uses, not against our own opinion. DPI math follows the same pixels-per-inch logic your printer's RIP software expects, and the LED math follows the pitch spec printed on the panel's own datasheet. We've checked the outputs against real spec sheets and worked examples, and we publish the math openly so you can check our work too. If you spot a number that's off, we want to hear about it and we'll fix it fast.

Why did we build this?

Most converters hide the single most important fact: there isn't one fixed pixels-per-foot value. A foot can be 96 pixels on a screen, 1,800 pixels at 150 DPI for a banner, or something completely different on an LED wall, and it all comes down to resolution. Tools that spit out a single "pixels per foot" number aren't being helpful, they're being wrong.

So we built the opposite. Our tools put DPI and pixel pitch front and center, because those inputs are what actually decide your answer. You tell us the job, we give you the number that's right for that job instead of a generic one. That resolution-honesty is the whole reason FeetToPixels exists, and it's why we'd rather show the formula than hide it.

How are we funded?

FeetToPixels is free, and it's funded by advertising. We display ads through Google AdSense, and that's what keeps the tools open to everyone with no paywall and no sign-up. We're telling you this up front because you deserve to know how a free site pays its way.

One thing we won't do: the ads never change the math or the result you see. There's no sponsored formula and no paid placement inside a calculation. What you'd compute by hand is exactly what the tool returns, every time.
