I have been trying to figure this out for weeks, and you showed me in the most simplest of ways. Thank you. I'm a new follower

Thank you for this. Thank you for speaking clearly, slowly and making this understandable for anybody.

Oh, I think your family will just LOVE it when you show off that pic! Great tutorial too. :-)

im just trying to make my small digital art larger without having to redraw it... I want the exact same detail

I think you should increase resolution first. Increase to like 1200 ppi, then enlarge to 60 in. Then reduce back to 300 ppi to make file size more reasonable. Should end up much less grainy that way... Picas were used in print layout back in the old cut and paste days (like, with scissors and glue)

When I did designs for canvas prints for billboards we use to work 300dpi, but our image size was at 50% of the complete image wich still looked great as these billboards are generally next to the highway or in an area where one does not view the image up close.

This is the 1st time I saw this vdo & it make sense Bro, great job.( subscribed your channel )

Thank you for this .

Picas are mostly used in newspapers. 6 picas = 1 inch.

Hello, any tips on how to create posters on my small pc screen and even though it will look very small be sure it will be visible while in a very large format say ( A0 size)

Okay that's good but how to actually export it for a print ? which color profile,format is best for a print?

If I wanted to print it to 16x20 what settings would i save it to?

how do i get an image file that is 16200x10800px png at 300dpi without going over a 48mb file limit?

Exporting would've been a nice addition too!! But great video, really helped a lot :)

Great video and much needed info haha! Cheers heaps :-)

I was thinking this was more advanced way to scale up without losing detail

Good instructions. So I asked GPT AI who uses Picas, and this is the answer it gave me. I must say, as a Graphic Designer, and one who works with type face, I have never used Picas. However I do recall something about Picas a very long time ago in high school when using on a manual typewriter. LOL "Pica" is a unit of measurement that is occasionally used in certain fields, particularly in typography and typesetting. It's a unit of measurement commonly used in the United States. One pica is equivalent to 1/6th of an inch or approximately 0.16667 inches. Graphic designers, typesetters, and professionals who work with print media and typography sometimes use picas to specify font sizes, line spacing, and other layout measurements. Picas are preferred in these fields because they provide a more precise and consistent way of describing layout elements than inches or millimeters. However, it's important to note that the use of picas is not as widespread as other measurement systems like inches or millimeters, and their use may be limited to specific industries and professions. Additionally, as of my last knowledge update in September 2021, the use of picas is more common in the United States than in many other parts of the world.

Thanks a lot!

great helpful video, thank you

The pica is a typographic unit.. very specific shit... never used it but a few "Magazine Designer" Friends can't live without it haha so i hope it helps.

Fascinating explanation although much of it made my head spin. When you send an image to be printed, say 40 x 30, which is bigger than the pixel count of your original full frame or APS-C original, do you use Lightroom to upscale it and send that over? Or do you send them a smaller size and they work the magic?

I thought resolution was what mattered. 72ppi is for screen, 150ppi is for small prints and 300ppi+ is for larger prints

its worth saying that of course the larger the print the distance you will be away from it - eg billboards may only be 10ppi - and you dont see them because the distance is many many metres away. - same goes for wall prints, you dont tend to stand inches away when looking, its a few metres away so you can get away with lower PPI.

If I am printing a photo from cvs can I use this method to print a 24x 36 ?

I crop all photos to 24x36 and 350 DPI BUT I want to make a large hardcover book of my macro. How can I convert them to another size without losing part of image?

Can I turn a 1024px x 1024px to a 12,288px x 12,288 pixel?? Is that posible?

lord this is a lot for someone that is not good with a computer

Hello I have a Batman image creeated in midjourney, I want to print this on 10*10 feet banner without quality losses, what can I do now, the image size is 5 MB

I srsly don't understand this. Keeping an image at 320dpi and enlarging size... It's artificially 320dpi. You can't adjust the size without the resolution adjusting. Right? Otherwise no one would have printing issues if you could just take. 72dpi 5x5 and say it's a 30x30 300 dpi. It doesn't work that way. I must be missing something.

thank you!!!🤍

Good video

what software or site do you use?

Hi and thanks for showing how to resize images. But what if I have a small original painting that I want to print for let's say in size A4, is my first step to scan and then send it to my computer and open it in Photoshop?

How...do you export it

Can you change to resolution of the photo?

what photoshop software do you use?

Picas is a measurement in the graphics & print industry.

You start with a large image. Then you can reduce the size. So how many pixels or mega pixels do you need to make a large image. The higher the PPI closer you would look at the image. If you print at 35 PPI the image will be pixelated but the image would be much larger and you would look at it from further away. The larger and larger you print the farther and farther you stand back to look at it which requires less resolution. Billboards are 14' by 48' and the DPI to print, 15. Why because you don't look at a billboard from three feet away you look at it from where you are on the road. A 2 megapixel image is all that's needed to create a billboard size image. To learn more follow the link. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/is6ghLqZtMyvf2g.html

How many megapixels on your camera to make that print ? How did you do a photo composite of that photograph ?

Can we do this without losing quality and not losing every detail in the picture

Hello Jay may I ask you a question please Sir if you don't mind a image on Google caught my attention and wanted it blew up as a poster 44×60 if possible I definitely need your assistance

Hello! I have an art with 1200dpi and i'd like to print as a panel with 4,00 x 2,70 meters (157,48 x 106,3 inches). Is it possible to have a high resolution print with that?

Does this only apply to raw files ? I’m trying to make a 30x40” print for a client and one lab says it’s too small. It’s a jpg

Pica a an older printers term

And you export it how?

I have a magazine that contacted me over doing an article on my art.. everything seems legit, I have done many articles for fine art magazines in the past but something that sent red flags is they are asking for jpeqs that are 25MB large. And when I try to size up that large from the original photo it doesnt reach 25mb's until the image size is like 30 to 40 inches wide. My question is why the heck they would need a photo that large for a small print magazine. And also blowing up the photos that large ruins the quality.

Lot of confusion on this video, starting with the « resample » checkbox left on.

lol picas was used in the stone age - of actual type-set newspapers

it's Tuesday lol

Hey is there chance you or anyone in the comments would know how to print good quality photos with a inkjet wall printer I'm trying to find out any info I can but it's hard as I don't know anything about printing and I need to learn all this from the ground up any help would be much appreciated almost tearing out my hair here

last time I heard of of somebody using picahs was in high school in Yearbook class.... in 1996. lolol 6 picahs = one inch.

OMG get to the damn point!!!!! geez!

Your tips are really bad, Sorry man…

use Ai to upscale img
