Rounding changes displayed numbers, not the calculation. Text, fractions, matrices and CSV schedules keep their own formatting. Automatic keeps up to 12 significant digits, with money shown to cents where applicable.

Formula and assumptions

The YouTube vertical-ad preset uses Google's published numeric insets for a 1080 x 1920 frame: left 48, right 192, top 288, bottom 672 pixels. It is a rectangular guide, not a copy of the official overlay. It does not establish organic Shorts, TikTok, Instagram or every-device safe zones, inspect text positions, or guarantee visibility. Check the platform preview and current official template. Custom margins are your own specification. Optional images stay in this browser. Frames are limited to 12 million pixels.

Automatic precision shows numbers to 12 significant digits. Thousands separators such as 1,000 are accepted; use a dot for decimals.

Optional preview image (PNG, JPEG or WebP, up to 20 MB)

The tinted area is outside your entered guide. Images are fitted inside the frame without cropping. The PNG download contains only the guide.

Reset reloads the tool with its starting values and releases open files and device controls. Saved drafts stay on this device until you delete them.

Links include your inputs and settings. Anyone with the link can see them, so leave out private text. Files and generated results are left out; random draws run again.
