On pages 168 through 170 of his CS3 book Scott Kelby recommends the following procedure for making extra large prints.
Image > Image Size: Type in the new, larger document size dimensions.
Then type in a larger resolution. Kelby recommends 360 pixels/inch.
Lastly and most importantly, for the sampling method, he says to choose Bicubic Sharper (best for reduction) instead of Bicubic Smoother (best for enlargement).
By doing this Scott Kelby disregards the Photoshop recommendation, Bicubic Smoother and uses Bicubic Sharper instead.
I am planning to make some large prints and am unsure as to whether to follow the Kelby recommendation or not. I would appreciate any advice or recommendations on this? |
