Updated
- A stretched matte canvas prints up to 60 x 20 inches (18000 x 6000 px at 300 DPI). Here is how the 1.25 inch wrap changes your layout.
- Largest print area is 60 x 20 in.
- The outer 1.25 inches wraps onto the sides and is not visible from the front.
- Keep all important content inside a safe area at least 1.5 inches in from every edge.
- Either extend the background so it wraps naturally, or accept a mirrored edge — a hard crop at the fold looks like a mistake.
Canvas has a hazard no flat print has: the edges wrap around the frame. Roughly an inch and a quarter of your artwork disappears onto the sides, so anything composed to the file's edge loses its border entirely.
Every print position, measured
These are the actual print areas Printify produces for this product, read from their blueprint data rather than estimated. Pixel values are at 300 DPI.
| Print position | Inches | Centimetres | Pixels @ 300 DPI |
|---|---|---|---|
| Front | 60 x 20 in | 152.4 x 50.8 cm | 18000 x 6000 px |
Placement that survives the real product
- Largest print area is 60 x 20 in.
- The outer 1.25 inches wraps onto the sides and is not visible from the front.
- Keep all important content inside a safe area at least 1.5 inches in from every edge.
- Either extend the background so it wraps naturally, or accept a mirrored edge — a hard crop at the fold looks like a mistake.
The rule that overrides every chart: print areas are the maximum, not the target. Most strong designs use 70–85% of the available width and sit slightly above the geometric centre, because that is where the eye expects them on a worn or photographed product.

Quick answers.
What size should a canvas design be?
Up to 60 x 20 inches at 300 DPI (18000 x 6000 px), but keep key content 1.5 inches inside every edge.
How much of a canvas wraps around the edge?
About 1.25 inches on this blueprint. That portion is visible from the side, not the front.
How do I stop my design being cut off?
Extend the background outward so the wrap has something to carry, and keep type and faces well inside the safe area.
