# Export a tweet at 4K

If the image is going into a 4K video timeline, onto a large display, or into print, a 1080p export has to be upscaled and the text goes soft. Rendering the card at 4x from the start means there is real detail rather than interpolated pixels.

## How it works

1. Paste the link to the post.
1. Keep the 16:9 canvas and push the resolution to 4x.
1. Set the quality to max.
1. Download the 4K PNG.

## Settings on this page

| Setting | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Format | PNG |
| Aspect ratio | 16:9 |
| Theme | light |
| Background | gradient |
| Gradient | #4568dc → #b06ab3 |
| Corner radius | 12px |
| Padding | 84px |
| Scale | 4x |
| Quality | max |

This is the heaviest preset here and it is the one most likely to be reduced on a phone: a 16:9 frame at 4x is over eight million pixels, and mobile Safari will refuse a canvas much larger. The tool downscales and tells you when that happens rather than failing.


## Questions

### What resolution is a 4K export?

3840 by 2160 for 16:9. The tool reduces it if your device cannot allocate a canvas that large, and says so in the status line.

### Do I need 4K for social media?

No. Every platform re-compresses to 1080p or less. 4K is for video timelines, large displays and print.

### Why did my export come out smaller than 4K?

Mobile browsers cap canvas size. The tool scales down to fit rather than crashing, and reports the reduction.
