Hi all,

I got my digital photo but not sure it meets the requirements. I will really appreciate it if anyone could help me with this!

My digital photo is 1009 × 1297 pixels, with DPI 72 pixels/inch in my mac computer, file size is 214 KB. I think it meets the requirements: no less than 60 KB and physical dimensions in pixels at least 420×540?

But I am not sure about this: final frame size 35mm × 45 mm? How can I tell if my digital photo will meet this when printed?

Also, what is the difference between pixels per inch (PPI) and dots per inch? My DPI is 72 but I see if scanned, resolution should be at least 600 PPI?

Any help would be much appreciated!
