If you like reading,

scanning an old photo or an image from a magazine follows the same principles. You should scan the original at a resolution that gives you the desired number of dpi for whatever print format you want to create after scanning. Aspect ratio, also known as aspect ratio, is the ratio between the width and height of a photo. It essentially describes the shape of your image. The most commonly used aspect ratio is 16 to 9 numbers. And the width is always the first number, followed by the height. An image that is three times as wide as it is tall has an aspect ratio of 3:1. It is important to note that an image aspect ratio is not the actual size of the image in pixels or centimeters. For example, a square image that is 500 x 500 pixels has an aspect ratio of 1:1. An image that is 1500 x 1500 pixels has the same aspect ratio of 1:1. The images are different sizes but the same aspect ratio. Consider another example. Image (1) is 800 x 400 pixels. And image (2) is 1200 x 600 pixels. What is the aspect ratio for each is so easy to calculate, each image is a rectangle with an aspect ratio of 2:1 which is exactly the same 4:2 or 40 to 20 or 400 to 200 = 800 to 400, although width and height for Each image is different, the division result is the same.

2.) Is there anything to consider when it comes to aspect ratio and scanning!

An aspect ratio is the proportional relationship between the height and width of an image or document. If you start scanning images that have the same aspect ratio, you can better decide whether they should be cropped, for example to DIN A4.

  My question is not there in the FAQ
Asked questions on this answer:
  1. Hey, do you know how I can scan exactly the size of an A4 page? I put almost an A4 page in the scanner, but then must always scan the entire surface, otherwise there is an ugly aspect ratio. Do you think there is quite a possibility ne an A4 template to insert, which one selects then, if one inserts an A4 side in the upper left corner.
