At 300 DPI and JPEG quality 90, expect roughly 3–5 MB per file depending on detail.
Why these numbers
Pixel dimensions are simply inches multiplied by DPI: 5 in × 300 = 1500 px and 7 in × 300 = 2100 px. Print labs rasterise your file at the size the buyer orders, so delivering exactly 1500 × 2100 px means no upscaling, no soft edges, and no rejected files.
If your source artwork has a different aspect ratio (most AI generators output 16:9 or 1:1), you cannot reach 5x7 by scaling alone — the image must be resized to fill and then cropped. Doing that by hand for every size in a bundle is where sellers lose hours.
