DPI in printing stands for dots per inch. A higher DPI means a higher resolution and therefore a higher dot density. This will give you a higher print quality.

300 dpi is the standard print quality a lot of professional printers will ask for and is suitable for most commercial applications.

The problem with Canva is that you when you download the PNG it only produces a 120 DPI image or 96 DPI image for JPG.

You can check the dpi of a picture by right-clicking the file name - properties - details. You can then see the horizontal and vertical dpi.

Alternatively, you can open in Paint - click file - properties and you can see this JPG is only 96 DPI.

According to Canva we can get 300 dpi images by selecting the PDF Print option and then downloading. However, if we have uploaded low-resolution pictures to the images it will still result in low quality.

What we need to do is take this "PDF - Print file" and convert it to high-quality JPG.

Firstly click download. Then select "PDF print" and click download.
If you are sending it to a professional printer they will need the crop marks and bleed.

Then head over to pdf2jpg.net/.

Choose a PDF file to upload it.

THEN select "Excellent 300 DPI".

Then click "Convert PDF to JPG. And download that file.

Now when we open the image in paint the jpg will be 300 DPI.

We also need to convert the file from RGB to CMYK.

You can do this by going to https://www.rgb2cmyk.org/ and converting your image. Upload your file, selected JPeg, you can use the default settings for the rest and click start.

There you go. Now you should have a print-ready image in 300 dpi with a CMYK colour profile.
