Try the repair, inspect the actual output and enlarge only an accepted result if needed. A sharper generated face and a larger file are not guarantees of an accurate or satisfying print. ## Define this purchase decision A wall print magnifies both defects and editorial changes. Decide whether the important task is repair, enlargement, a different crop or better capture. If the source is already clean but small, an enlargement decision may be enough. If a face is mostly absent, enlarging an invented replacement does not make it authentic. Choose the paper ratio before spending on alternate versions. A family scene may lose people when filled into a narrower frame. The existing print calculators can compare crop and borders, but they do not predict a lab's trim or certify visual quality. Ask the lab for actual requirements and order a proof when appropriate. ## Worked decision example Worked example: an accepted 3000×2000 file has a 3:2 ratio. At 12×8 inches it supplies 250 PPI on both axes. Filling 10×8 requires a 5:4 crop. Keeping height at 2000 pixels gives a 2500-pixel-wide crop, removing 500 ÷ 3000 ≈ 16.7% of the original width. Fit instead preserves the scene with borders. If a relative stands near the edge, the fill crop may be unacceptable even when the pixel density is sufficient. Buying another scratch-repair attempt does not change that geometry. Choose another frame, borders or a controlled layout adjustment. The arithmetic is reproducible; it is not a real print test or a claim about a particular output's fidelity. ## Complete the decision worksheet - Before trial: record the print dimensions, source pixel count and which faces or edge objects must survive the final composition. - After repair: inspect the actual downloaded dimensions. Restoration's configured output can be smaller than a large original scan. - Before enlargement: approve identity, repaired texture and text. Upscale only the accepted version, and compare its result again. - Before order: apply the agreed crop or borders, follow lab specifications and inspect a proof. Keep the final saved file and the untouched source. ## Resolve the buyer objections Is 300 PPI always compulsory? It is a useful comparison target, not a universal rule for every printer, viewing distance or paper. The printer's requirements and a proof are better purchasing evidence than a blanket PPI claim. Evaluate the face quality at the intended display size as well. Can RestoreBunny guarantee no face change? No. Its repair goal is natural fidelity, but generative uncertainty remains. A wall portrait deserves close comparison with recognisable source features and a knowledgeable relative when available. A rejected result is a reason to pause, not automatically to buy a larger credit pack. ## Keep a useful decision record Inspect a proof for two separate decisions: whether the edited image remains acceptable and whether the printer delivered the agreed file correctly. A cut-off head may be a crop problem; an altered expression already visible in the download is an editing problem. Report the cause to the relevant provider rather than paying for the wrong remedy. Keep the proof and final dimensions noted in the project record. When selecting a larger frame, revisit geometry before assuming another upscale is sufficient. A useful wall-print purchase has a clear stopping point: an approved source-linked digital file, an agreed layout and a satisfactory provider proof. None of those three approvals automatically supplies the other two. ## Choose the next action Use the free file and print calculators before a paid trial, then select the operation that addresses the real defect. Check the trial download and quote or checkout details for any remaining operation. Keep restoration, enlargement, layout and printing as separately approved expenses. When the result passes, save it promptly and test the proposed print workflow with the provider. When it fails identity or crop requirements, improve the source, choose a smaller display or use a controlled manual approach. A smaller faithful print is often a more useful family outcome than a large unsupported reconstruction. Use the existing free single-photo print exporter for a saved JPEG or PNG when its paper presets fit your task. Preview fit with white borders or fill with a movable crop, select the planning PPI and inspect the exported file. It does not restore missing detail, certify printer quality or supply a finished album-book export. ## FAQs Do more output pixels prove the restored face is accurate? No. Pixel count and source fidelity are separate checks. Does restoration preserve my large scan dimensions? No fixed preservation of input dimensions is promised. Inspect the downloaded result before planning the print. Can the print calculator predict lab trimming? No. It calculates geometric crop or fit. Confirm margins, bleed and trim with the printer. ## Sources Preservation and technical guidance reviewed for this article. - RestoreBunny: [Current credit-pack pricing]() - RestoreBunny: [Credits, outputs and privacy FAQ]() - RestoreBunny: [Credit purchase and technical issue policy]() - RestoreBunny: [Image processing and retention policy]() ## Related - [How to Scan Old Photos for Larger Prints: Pixels, Crop and PPI]() - [Check a Photo Print Proof Before Ordering a Batch]() - [Review supported photo restoration]() - [Start an eligible restoration trial]() - [Check current credit-pack terms]() - [Check actual photo dimensions for free]() - [Prepare one reviewed photo with the free print exporter]() ## Ready to restore your photos?
