When you download multiple 2D snapshots from Matterport Cloud you can choose from three size options.
Download Size | Pixels | File Size |
Web Ready Medium size images appropriate for websites |
1280 x 720 | Around 150 KB |
Presentation Ready Higher resolution images appropriate for all digital uses |
1920 x 1080 | Around 200 KB |
Maximum Pixels Maximum resolution for use in printed materials* |
From 1920 x 1080 to 8092 x 4552** |
From 300 KB to 5 MB |
* For Maximum Pixels, the actual resolution depends on the zoom level when the snapshot was taken. Zooming out will increase the resolution and increase the file size. Zooming in will lower the resolution and lower the file size.
** 3D models older than summer of 2016 without zoom will have lower maximum resolution. In addition, snapshots from models scanned with the Matterport Pro 3D Camera can reach a maximum of 2832 x 1593 pixels.
Printing Information
We encourage you to take 2D snapshots from your Matterport models, download them to your computer, and use them in your printed materials.
For most use cases, it's simple enough to print out your snapshots directly. However, if you want the highest quality printed materials, then keep reading.
The default value for snapshots is 72 DPI. All of our snapshots are printable at 300 dpi (dots per inch). This DPI level is great quality and is most common in marketing collateral such as printed flyers, direct mailings, and similar. Depending on your target media (bus ad, billboard, etc), a different DPI might be more appropriate. For example, a typical home printer prints at 170 DPI.
For more information please discuss the details with the professional printing company that will create your materials. |
Preset Image Sizes
The zoom level when you take the snapshot in Workshop will determine how big the final printed image can be yet still be printable at 300 dpi.
