Advice needed, by stender on Apr 12, 2008 20:27:52 GMT 1, I do a bit of photoshop but have no idea about print and have 2 questions.
1. I normally just do web size images upto about A4. How can I do images that can then be enlarged upto Print size?
2. How would I go from a computer image to a print? Is it print onto one of those large printers or is there another way? printing multiples on a big laserjet will cost a lot on ink.
Thanks in advance Noob Artist.

Advice needed, by Martin Whatson on Apr 13, 2008 23:48:23 GMT 1, Its a bit hard to tell what you are asking about here.
A tip is to make everything in photoshop bigger or at least not smaller than you want them printed. I normally dont care when doing stencils. But for printing photos etc. youll need a Hi Res photo. 2-300 dpi should work well with most printers. Try to clarify and I can see what more I can help you with!

Advice needed, by GVD on Apr 14, 2008 10:02:37 GMT 1, if you wanna print something on multiple pages photoshop is really annoying cause you have to do it manually.
So what you should do is enlarge the picture in photoshop to the size you want it to be (for example 40 by 60 cm), then save it as a jpeg.
Then open it in paint, and print it. Paint automaticly prints it on multiple pages in the size you want it to be .
Hope that helps.

Advice needed, by stender on Apr 14, 2008 10:49:53 GMT 1, Sorry guys. What I meant is if I am wanting to print photos to a size circa A1, A2. Most source photos on the web are not that big so if you tried to blow them up you would lose resolution. Is there any way to get around this? e.g. blow up a A4 photo to A1 without losing definition??? I read something about vector grpahics being used for printing?
The second part was If I wanted to issue my photos as prints would that mean printing x amount onto laserjet printers? If you did 100 prints that is a lot of ink and quite expensive.
Thanks
