I'm making a brochure sized 8.625" x 11.125" (the extra .125" is bleed) at 300 dpi. The PSD file is 10.3MB (just looking at one side, since the problem's with both), but when I try to save it as a PDF, it gives me an error saying that the resulting file is more than 2GB!
Also, if I save it as a JPEG (figured I might try to convert to PDF from that), the image dimensions jump to 35.417" x 45.833" (not including bleed). Shrinking the dimensions leaves me with a low resolution though.
I'm not a PS pro, but I'd like to know if shrinking it, then just increasing it to 300dpi would cause problems. Alternatively, what else could solve the problem?
Thanks in advance |
