I know how to tell photoshop what measurements my image are. But how do I ensure that these measurements will be used when printing?

HOw can I know ahead of time that a certain portion of my image will print at 3.7cm by 1.8cm?

if you go to your navigation window in the top right theyl be a tab called info sumwhere click on that and it should show you your dimensions, if it isnt showing go into transformation mode and it will give you a continous reading when transforming objects.

Okay I see what your talking about. The measurement under the info tab says "5" however I need it to say "3.7". How do I change it to measure "3.7" instead? Thanks for the reply BTW.

Hi there
You can change it under the Image Size command from the Image Menu. Make sure you have resample turned off, then change the dimensions and the resolution value should amend to the ned calculation!
Hope this helps
