Question 2

How many photos can fit in a photobook?

Accepted Answer

We print hardcover books in various page counts: 24, 30, 32, 48, and 96 pages.
If you want one photo per page, the number of photos equals the number of pages.
With text or collages, the capacity is:

For example:
• 48-page book holds 48–60 photos, with text: 40–60.
• 32-page book holds 32–40 photos, with text: 30–40.
• 96-page book holds 96–120 photos, with text: 90–120.
• 96-page large book holds 96–140 photos, with text: 90–140.
• 30-page book holds 30–35 photos, one photo is used for the cover.
• 24-page book holds 24–29 photos, one photo is used for the cover.

These are the recommended photo quantities for each book.

Question 4

Which photo formats can be uploaded?

Accepted Answer

• On QARTA you can upload any photo in JPG, JPEG, PNG, HEIC or DNG.
This can be both professional photographer's work and smartphone shots.

• Photos can be arranged in various templates: full page, half page, etc. Each template has its own requirements, but generally, original photos taken with a phone or camera fit without problems.

• If an uploaded photo is low quality, you will see a warning sign about quality — in such cases, it's better to replace the photo with a higher quality file.

• Please note: Photos downloaded from social networks or messengers are often smaller in size than originals taken with a camera. Therefore, it's better to upload source files.

Printing quality

Accepted Answer

For the production of our hardcover photobooks, we use only high-quality materials so they can bring you joy for many years. Your photos are printed on smooth white paper and covered with matte lamination.

We use digital printing and production processes are fully automated, which ensures maximum speed and confidentiality of your photos and data. Our printing method guarantees that you will receive a product that will be executed with the best quality worthy of your memories.

Digital printing is an ideal technology for photo books, which ensures color accuracy, photo detail, and fast production. The files required for digital printing must be high quality. Low-resolution photos may be printed with low detail or weak color rendering.

Question 12

Can I use mobile or film photos?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Modern smartphones are equipped with high-resolution cameras, which allow you to create high-quality and detailed photos perfect for printing.

Film photos also look great in photobooks. However, it is recommended that film photo scanning be performed at high resolution to preserve the quality and details. Film photos often have a natural grain effect, which can add a beautiful vintage character to your photobook.
