Why a small original is not enlarged

This tool downsizes. Larger bounds do not enlarge a small original or generate new detail.

Input and processing example

Compare it yourself · Illustrative example

원본 / Original: 600 × 400
최대 / Maximum: 1200 × 1200
결과 / Result: 600 × 400

Steps to verify

  • Check whether the original is below target.
  • Compare output dimensions.
  • Look for a larger source.

How to interpret the result

The scale is capped at one, preventing larger dimensions. Re-encoding can occur without changing pixel dimensions.

Deciding what to do next

Prepare a larger original when resolution is insufficient. A larger saved file does not restore missing detail.
