3.5 x 2.5 photos are also commonly referred to as wallet-size photos. They are an ideal size to print if you want to share printed photos with a large number of people. Most photography studios offer wallet sizes for purchase. However, you may wish to print your own wallet-size photos to hand out to friends and family. Using most photo editing software, it is possible to convert photos to 3.5 x 2.5 size for printing.

Open your editing software and create a new document.

Set the canvas size to 3.5 x 2.5 inches.

Open the photo you want to print 3.5 x 2.5 size.

Paste the photo onto the 3.5 x 2.5 canvas.

Re-size the photo if necessary by selecting it and scaling it down to fit within the canvas. Some editing software will automatically re-size photos to fit the new canvas size. The photo is now ready to print.

Warnings:

  • Always be certain you have the rights to any photos you are printing.
