Sizing the Image


New  

The final physical size of the image has to be 7 ² wide to fit in the brochure. Resize the image by using the Image Size command (see Figure H5.5):

  1. Choose Image Image Size. Uncheck the Resample Image box. Change the width to 7 ² . The height automatically changes to 4.686 ² . The resolution has to be 300 ppi, which is the required resolution for printing to a high-quality printed publication. The image currently is 208 ppi at the current physical image size. Because you will have to increase the resolution of the image, you ll need to resample up. Check the Resample Image box to activate the interpolation options. The file size will more than double because you re adding pixels to the image. From the Resample Image menu, choose Bicubic Sharper. Click OK.

  2. Click OK.

  3. Press /Ctrl-S to save.
