11x14 Print Size in Pixels at 300 DPI
An 11×14 print at 300 DPI is 3300×4200 pixels. It is not 4:5 like 8×10. Crop to 11:14 around the subject, then stamp 300 DPI.
Direct answer
An 11×14 inch print at 300 DPI is 3300×4200 pixels in portrait, or 4200×3300 in landscape. That is 11 × 300 by 14 × 300. The ratio is 11:14, not 4:5, so an 8×10 file will crop or letterbox if you force it. Pin the subject, crop to 11×14, then export with a 300 DPI tag.
11×14 is the frame people buy when 8×10 feels small and 16×20 feels like a statement. It is also the size Etsy sellers most often fake by stretching an 8×10. Buyers with a real 11×14 moulding notice the chopped chin or the empty mat you did not sell.
The math is simple. The composition is not. 11÷14 ≈ 0.786. 8÷10 = 0.80. Close on a thumbnail, wrong on a wall. Treat 11×14 as its own SKU.

The exact pixels for 11×14
Portrait: 3300×4200. Landscape 14×11: 4200×3300. At 150 DPI (some fabrics) it would be 1650×2100 — do not mix that with paper. Bleed of 0.125 in per side becomes 11.25×14.25 in, or 3375×4275 pixels, only if the partner asks.
8×10 is 2400×3000. Same family of gift frames, different crop. 16×20 is 4800×6000 and shares 4:5 with 8×10, not with 11×14.

| Size | Ratio | Portrait pixels |
|---|---|---|
| 8 × 10 in | 4:5 | 2400 × 3000 |
| 11 × 14 in | 11:14 | 3300 × 4200 |
| 12 × 16 in | 3:4 | 3600 × 4800 |
| 16 × 20 in | 4:5 | 4800 × 6000 |
Why an 8×10 file fails as 11×14
If you scale 2400×3000 up to 3300×4200 you invent pixels and the print goes soft. If you pad 4:5 to 11:14 you add borders. If you stretch, faces get long. The only honest path is a new crop from the original around a focal point.
Phone photos that barely make 8×10 after crop may still make 11×14 if the short side after the 11:14 window is at least 3300 pixels. Many 12 MP files can. Many Instagram downloads cannot.
How to export 11×14 from Reopic
Open Studio, pin the subject, add 11 × 14 in (or 14 × 11). Export Artwork. Free allows three custom ratios a day — pair 11×14 with 8×10 and 5×7 in one sitting. Pro is $33 lifetime for a catalog ZIP.
Listing copy that matches the file
Write “11×14 in” in the variation name. Upload the 3300×4200 file to that SKU, not the 8×10. Mockups should show the slightly taller window so the buyer is not surprised on the wall.
If you also sell 11×14 matted to 16×20, that is a different product: the print is still 11×14 pixels, the mat is packaging. Do not export a 16×20 crop and call it 11×14.
