This reference covers what you can upload to Templified, the size limits, and what to expect from the finished output — so your photos look as good in the final render as they do out of the camera.
Accepted upload formats
JPEG and PNG are supported everywhere and are the safe choice for all photo and graphic uploads. Some upload entry points also accept GIF, WebP, and BMP. SVG files are not supported.
For custom fonts, the Font Manager accepts OTF, TTF, and WOFF2 files.
Maximum file size
Images can be up to 15 MB each. If a file exceeds the limit, the upload is rejected with a message naming the file — export a smaller JPEG and try again. 15 MB comfortably fits full-resolution JPEGs from professional cameras; it's typically only very large PNGs or TIFF-to-PNG conversions that hit it.
Recommended resolution for print
Renders are produced at your template's pixel dimensions, so output quality is set by two things: the template's canvas size and the resolution of the photos you upload.
- Size templates for the print, not the screen. A common rule of thumb is 300 pixels per inch of print: an 8×10" print works out to a 2400×3000 px canvas.
- Upload original-resolution photos. Don't downsize before uploading — Templified handles big originals and uses the full resolution for the final render.
Sideways photos fix themselves
Cameras record orientation (which way was up) inside the photo file. Templified reads that automatically — portrait shots appear upright in the editor and render upright in the output. You don't need to rotate photos before uploading.
Editor preview vs. final render
To keep the editor fast, Templified shows you a compact preview of each photo (up to 1600 px, in WebP format) while you design. The final render always goes back to your full-resolution original — preview quality never limits output quality. This is why a heavily zoomed editor view can look slightly soft while the delivered render is sharp.
Output formats
| Design type | Output |
|---|---|
| Single-page template | JPEG image |
| Two-page template | A single PDF containing both pages (pages stored as high-quality JPEG inside the PDF, keeping file sizes small) |
Downloads keep the matching file extension — .jpg for single-page renders, .pdf for two-page renders.
