LinkedIn post image size in 2026
The recommended LinkedIn post image image is 1200 × 627 px, an aspect ratio of 1.91:1 (exactly 400:209). Also the link-preview size for shared articles. LinkedIn is viewed mostly on desktop in a narrow feed column, so 1200 px wide images look sharp without being heavy. Personal banners and company banners have different sizes and different crops on mobile; the bottom-left of a personal banner is covered by the profile photo.
How this tool fits your photo
Most photos are 4:3 or 3:2, not 1.91:1. Rather than stretching, this tool scales the photo until it covers the 1200 × 627 frame and then crops equally from the edges that overflow. For a portrait photo going into a landscape slot, that means the top and bottom are trimmed; for a landscape photo going into a portrait slot, the sides. If the subject is off-centre, crop it roughly first in your phone's editor, then use this tool for the exact pixels. Images smaller than 1200 × 627 are enlarged, which softens them slightly; start from the largest original you have.
Format and file size
JPG or PNG. 8 MB for posts; banners 8 MB. Output here keeps your input format (JPG stays JPG at quality 90, PNG stays PNG). If the result is over the platform's limit, run it through the image compressor with a target size.
