      <title>I got tired of googling “A4 at 300 DPI” so I made a print-size calculator</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I keep doing the same two jobs in a browser tab:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Convert a paper size to pixels at a given DPI (A4 / letter / photo / business card, plus bleed).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Crush a PNG or JPG down to a target KB so it can be uploaded somewhere.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most tools that do this are buried in 40-tool toolkits, want an account, or upload the file to a server. I wanted one screen, numbers I can copy, and a URL I can send to someone else.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So I shipped two small sites:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Print size → pixels: &lt;a href="https://print.hugsy.top" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://print.hugsy.top&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Compress an image to a target size (runs in the browser): &lt;a href="https://image.hugsy.top" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://image.hugsy.top&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The print calculator has shareable result URLs. If you need “A4 at 300 DPI with 3mm bleed”, you can copy the pixels and send the link. The compressor is drag/paste, pick a size, download. No signup.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is not a VC thing. It’s a small utility network called Hugsy (&lt;a href="https://hugsy.top" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://hugsy.top&lt;/a&gt;). English is the default because that’s where search is. I’m not pretending it replaces TinyPNG or Omni Calculator. If you actually print or send images for work, I’d like to know what’s missing.&lt;/p&gt;
