  3. Choose the paper (4×6 in or A4), then print the sheet or download it.

School and ID card requirements

School, college and ID cards often ask for 1.5 × 2 inch photos (about 38 × 51 mm).

Tips for a photo that gets accepted

  • Face the camera straight, with a neutral expression and both eyes open.
  • Use even light with no shadows on the face or background.
  • No glasses glare, hats or heavy filters.
  • Take it recently: most offices want a photo from the last six months.

Print at home or at a shop

The sheet is laid out at the exact paper size with thin cut lines. A 4×6 inch sheet fits 4 photos of 38 × 51 mm, and A4 fits 25. Print at 100% scale, not "fit to page", so the size stays exact.
