Re: Perfect Resize - Increasing the resolution of images for print - thoughts?
-sigh- Blaizer. Printer DPI is not the same as pixels per inch. This image should explain enough: 200PPI is enough for a print and even 100PPI could be okay for a small run thing like a company flyer or school magazine, but it's kinda pushing it. Ideally you want source images 300PPI or higher for prints, but at some point… -

That image you posted has enough pixels for a much larger print. Much larger. A 300PPI print already has smaller pixels than a human hair. You don't need a 9600PPI image.

i perfectly know that snader. You also don't get what i wanted to say, but the image you posted is perfect. As i already said, one pixel may be hundreds of dots. In that pic less... :) With higher resolutions, a pixel can be very close to a bunch of dots. What is better?, a pixel represented by 8x8 dots, or 200x200dots?… -
Re: Perfect Resize - Increasing the resolution of images for print - thoughts?
I didn't say anything about how printers print hehe. Actually, most home printers offers a print resolution of 9600 x 2400 dpi, that's a insane amount of detail (ppi are different, so it's a marketing number :S), so the bigger the resolution of your image, the better (but it depends of the size!!). A 3000px image looks…
