I'm quite a newbie to designing.
Do you think this image has a good enough resolution for printing a 50 x 50 mm sticker?

4Keep in mind that the thin font might be difficult to read at small sizes, and that many stickers are meant to be read from a distance (think bumper stickers / laptop stickers). Others, like labels, might be fine smaller. – Tyzoid Jan 15 '19 at 22:32

4Also be aware that light grey grid will be difficult to maintain or may be lost. Anything less than a 5% screen of an ink can be "iffy" on press. It takes a quality print house to maintain screens under 5%. And an exceptional print house to maintain a 1% or 2% screen. – Scott Jan 15 '19 at 22:56

2As an ex-pre-press operator, I'd have to ask why you don't just send the file through as a vector in a .pdf / .eps file? – Aaron Lavers Jan 16 '19 at 4:24

@Aaron.. yes I'll be sending as a pdf. But used jpg here for easy reference. Thanks for all the tips guys. – droidbot Jan 16 '19 at 8:28

Resolution is not your issue here if you are sending vectors. You will likely run into issues because of the halftone (lpi) caused by the thin and light elements. IMO your image probably isn't suitable for printing, but for reasons other than the resoluion. – curious♦ Jan 17 '19 at 15:46

Of course yes.
Your image is 50 x 50 cm! at 72 PPI
Converted to 300 PPI which is an optimal resolution, the final size is 12 x 12 cm
At 50 x 50 mm, the final resolution is more than 730 PPI
