The formula
New height = new width × original height ÷ original width. The ratio itself is width and height divided by their greatest common divisor (1920 × 1080 → 16:9).
Print size = pixels ÷ DPI. 300 DPI is the usual target for photo prints; 150–200 DPI is fine for large posters viewed from a distance. To actually resize a file, use the free image resizer.
