Yes. CS6 Right, but is it ok (or better) to leave the resolution at 240, and have the pixel count exceed the original? Isn't there a potential negative result with interpolation? I guess I'd just like a step-by-step process spelled out. Perhaps it is as you said originally - just size it...

"at a time"? I'm not sure what you mean by that. As these files are lossy, don't we want to do it just once? Thanks for mentioning the TIF thing; I've heard conflicting opinions on that too. Is it really better?

I am referring to a photo, like one would hang on a wall as an art piece, so I want the best possible result. Here's an example of the settings I'm unclear on (see file). I opened a 4592 x 3468 pixel JPG, punched in the 40" and 30" numbers without altering the resolution (PPI), and the pixels...

Not sure what you mean there.

What is the best method for resizing a JPG photograph for a large print? Let's say I have a 4:3 aspect ratio JPG out of my camera which is 4592 x 3468 pixels, and I want to print it at the same aspect ratio, but at a size of 40" x 30" for say, a canvas print. Is it best to do that in...

^^^Yup. Here's how I replied to his last email: Hi John, With absolutely no offence intended, you received a name on your boards done in a font (complete with bad kerning) which would make any good, professional designer/signmaker/typographer cringe, wince and possibly cry. There are a...

Fail.

It was just a vent Gino.

I suggest that if it makes you sad and frustrated, then it does indeed bug you. :wink: I don't know (and did not suggest) that the assault-on-the-eyes job he got done elsewhere was made with calendered vinyl. It may have been made with cast, but that doesn't change the most important aspect...

I addressed that in post #4.

Yes, there's something to be said for that approach, although, I've heard it said that the last thing one ought to say is "what's your budget", as that can scare 'em away like scared rabbits. To your latter point, this job would not have ranged from $50-$300. I never use calendered vinyl for...

I think I'd rather collect my thoughts and get them across in an email as opposed to a phone call.

Sadly, I'd say you are correct in your assessment; I've had the same experience with photography. Within the last hour, I received an email from this customer, and it goes like this: Feedback is always appreciated Colin. I am however curious as what your meaning is with the phrase “...the...

Heh heh, ya, and I love those two big black spikes hanging down at the bottom of the "w". I suspect that he just phoned around and went with the lowest price, and this is what that particular sign shop came up with.

Thanks Jill. It's always a tough call; we stick to our guns on the "deposit" issue and we protect ourselves from having our design/artwork "shopped around" or flat-out stolen and used by someone else, but at the same time we risk losing a potential customer (like I did in this example). The...

Here's another example of what people wind up with when they shop for the lowest price. This is the back & forth email I had with this guy (me in blue): We recently purchased a Grand Banks 32 trawler and are changing the name. The vessel carries the typical GB teak signboards port &...

I feel like I've seen this before, but I can't find it with FMF, WFI or WTF.

My previous tech tried a number of things with no success. My new tech says that when a few nozzles get plugged, drawing ink or cleaning solution through the head won't coax the material causing the plug to release because there's not enough pressure to blow it out, due to the free flow of the...

Boy this one takes me back to my old hand-lettering days. I got nothing with my font searches; any ideas?

I know what you mean, but the thing is, I have demonstrated and provided solid evidence to them that this began within the warranty period, and that the dealer didn't do anything about it. They do not dispute this, rather, they hide behind the Scan Error report thingy within the printer. If...
