|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 × 10 in | trims 4.4 % | 8 × 9½ in | 8 × 10 in ready-made | 12 × 14 in custom | 14 × 16 in custom | 200 dpi, crisp from a step back |

Sharpness is worked out from the largest file the museum offers. Above 300 dpi a print holds up at arm’s length; 150 dpi is plenty for a picture seen from across a sofa.
