As you say, anything higher is unlikely to give any visible improvement. When I did a test recently I could only tell the difference between (scaling to this print size) 1350x900 and 1800x1200 with the help of a magnifying-glass. -- Stephen Poley |

Hey thanks BenOne
I've just taken some 10 by 14" images for printing and I resized/resampled to that level to see what heppens. I had some prints at same size and used the printer settings (or whatever the photo shop is using) This time I want to see the effect of resize/resample through PSCS Aerticus "BenOne©" wrote in message ...

Can anyone recommend a utility to (after d/load), which can do a batch resample ....or somehow reduce all the pix to a reasonable size for email or web use.....preferably all at once? Thanks.

Version: 6.0.789 / Virus Database: 534 - Release Date: 11/7/04 Use the normal or fine (maybe "best") JPEG setting just in case you want to print. If you are viewing the pictures on a computer you should resize them to 800x600 or 1024x768, or even only 640x480 if you will be emailing them and only have a dialup modem connection. If you are going to print a 6x4 photo you need at least 1800x1200. Anything higher than that might not be noticable in the print. If you are going to print an 8x10 then don't resize the picture at all. -- Ben Thomas Opinions, conclusions, and other information in this message that do not relate to the official business of my firm shall be understood as neither given nor endorsed by it. |

I was simply recommending a minimum of 300dpi for that print size. -- Ben Thomas Opinions, conclusions, and other information in this message that do not relate to the official business of my firm shall be understood as neither given nor endorsed by it. |
