Hello:
New to photoshops forums but have been playing with the software (cs2) for a couple years now. My question has to do with size changing when I copy and paste a layer from one file to the next. I will use a hypothetical for an example but the concept and process has been confusing me on many projects.
•Ok I have a new document blank page 5’’x5’’.
•I would like to put a circle on there covering approximately 1/4.
•I open up another file 2.5’’x.2.5’’. Place my circle on there going almost all the way to the edges. (lets pretend the circle is detailed and I do not want to resize it again)
•I copy my circle, go over to the 5’’x5’’ image and paste. The pasted layer is always much larger then what it started. Not a 2.5’’ circle.
I know about smart images and how to resize without distortion. My problem always occurs when I copy and paste. Well not problem but operator error. |

Its probably something to do with the resolution of the image, make sure you have the same resolution on both files.
Image>Image Size: resolution |
