    Any Graphics Experts out there can help with a question about large printing 10 ft x 10 ft ?
    I want to order a custom printed background for my 10 foot wide trade show booth.
    ► Do I have this right, to get a clear print 10 foot wide it should be 300 dpi, right?
    ► a 300 dpi print 10 feet wide would have to be 36,000 pixels wide?
    Is this correct?
    Thanks for any info you can provide

    Yes 300dpi with 10 ft will be 36000px.
    But you dont need that much. It depends on how far it will be viewed from. 300dpi is for magazines and similar prints. For that size you can choose 72dpi.
