What are the best credential background image sizes?

Modified on Wed, 22 Nov, 2023 at 2:41 PM

For an optimal presentation of your credential backgrounds on Digit.ink, consider the following recommended sizes:


Digital-only Certificates: A width of 1200 pixels is ideal for credentials primarily designed for online viewing.


Print-ready Certificates: If you intend to print the credentials on a standard 8.5” x 11” paper, aim for a resolution of 300ppi, translating to dimensions of 2550 x 3300 pixels.


Badges and Other Compact Credentials: For smaller credentials, such as badges, a width of 600 to 1200 pixels will typically suffice.


It's important to be mindful of the overall file size. Background images over 2MB are not recommended due to page load time, and credentials over 5MB may not be issuable.
