About This Tool
Conceptually, it uses the standard relation 1 inch = 2.54 cm and 1 inch = DPI pixels. The formula is px = cm × (DPI ÷ 2.54). An optional device_pixel_ratio can be applied to reflect CSS pixel scaling. The tool supports optional rounding to a chosen precision for stable asset grids.
Who benefits includes web designers, mobile developers, game UI teams, and content creators who export assets for multiple densities. The tool reduces manual math, minimizes guesswork, and improves consistency when converting print-like measurements to digital layouts.
Core features include required inputs (length_cm and dpi), optional device_pixel_ratio, configurable rounding, and a clear numeric output. Sample scenarios include preparing a 2 cm button at 144 DPI or sizing an image to match a printed 5 cm stripe across a 2× device pixel context. Typical use cases cover icons, cards, and typography baseline checks.
How to Use
- Provide inputs: enter length_cm in centimeters and dpi (DPI).
- Optionally provide device_pixel_ratio and rounding precision.
- Run calculation to obtain px_value.
- Review the output and adjust asset sizes as needed.
- Apply the resulting pixel value to layouts and assets.
