Digital Print Order Format (DPOF)

SWPP Photographic Glossary

Digital Print Order Format, or DPOF, is a feature developed jointly by Kodak, Canon, Fuji, and Matsushita that allows users to specify which images stored on a digital camera's memory card should be printed, and in what quantity. Compatible with storage formats like CompactFlash, SmartMedia, and others, DPOF enables photographers to create print orders directly from their cameras without needing additional software.

This function simplifies the printing process, particularly for professional or personal workflow, by allowing easy selection of images, page layouts, and print quantities. DPOF remains a useful tool for photographers who want to manage and order physical prints efficiently from digital files.
