What pixel size is a 35x45 mm passport photo?
The presets work at 300 DPI. At that resolution 35 mm is 413 pixels and 45 mm is 531 (35 / 25.4 x 300 = 413.4, and 45 / 25.4 x 300 = 531.5), so the India Passport, UK Passport, Schengen Visa and Aadhaar/PAN presets all produce 413 x 531 pixels. India Visa (50x50 mm) gives 591 x 591, and US Passport (2x2 in) gives 600 x 600.
The single photo downloads as a JPG at 95% quality. Its millimetre size holds only when printed at 300 DPI, and a file saved from Chrome or Edge records no DPI value, so viewers may report a different print size. Some Indian exam and job portals set their own pixel size or KB limit; Photo Resize to 20KB can bring the file under such a cap.
How do zoom, offset and background colour work?
At zoom 1.00 the photo is scaled to cover the whole frame, centred, and the overflow is trimmed. A 3000 x 4000 phone portrait becomes about 413 x 551 pixels in a 413 x 531 frame, losing roughly 10 pixels at the top and at the bottom. Landscape shots lose more: a 4000 x 3000 photo becomes 708 x 531, so 147.5 pixels are cut from each side; the offset sliders, up to 200 pixels either way, bring your face back to the centre. Zoom runs from 0.80 to 2.00 in steps of 0.05.
The background colour fills only what the photo does not cover. At zoom 1.00 with no offset it is hidden completely, and it appears when you zoom below 1.00 or shift the photo past an edge; with a 3:4 portrait, any horizontal offset exposes a strip. Your real background is never removed or recoloured, so take the photo against a plain, light wall. AI Background Remover can cut you out of a busy background, but it sends the photo to a server for processing.
How many photos fit on the 4x6 print sheet?
The sheet is 1800 x 1200 pixels, 6 x 4 inches at 300 DPI, with 30-pixel (2.54 mm) gaps. With the 35x45 mm presets it holds 3 columns and 2 rows, so 6 photos, while the 50x50 mm and 2x2 inch presets fit 2 side by side. Copies start at the top left and leave spare white space at the right and bottom. The sheet is saved as passport-sheet-4x6.jpg at 92% quality with your current zoom, offset and background.
Ask the studio for a 6 x 4 inch print with no cropping or scaling, then trim along the gaps. The tool has no face outline or head-size check, so measure the head against the issuing authority's current specification yourself.
