Please Tell Me The Standee Size

I'm having a design done for a 5 x 2 paper label. Here is what the label company told me,

Just ask your designer to add 1/8" bleeds on the graphic file size. If you are ordering a 5" x 2" , the graphic file's size should 5.25" x 2.25".

I printer out the design on my own printer, and the size is indeed about 5.25 x 2.25

I guess I'm confused about bleed. To compensate for bleed on a 5 x 2 label, shouldn't the file size be smaller, like 4.75 x 1.75 ?

Wouldn't a 5.25 x 2.25 file size print well over the actual label?

Thanks.

Hi Everyone, For some reason I am having problems with getting a correct print size. I am running CS5 on OSx Maverick. I need to print an A4 Sheet with several circular designs exactly 3cm dia. These need to be cut out to fit on badge blanks. I have tried to size the original image using the rulers set at cm, and using guides to establish the parameters, print res is 300. They just will not come out the correct size no matter how much I mess about with them. It's really frustrating.
Any help appreciated

Hello,

I am completely new to this forum so I apologize if this is posted in the wrong place. I am using Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 and have a question regarding file size/quality. So, here it goes.

I am currently working on publication that requires all downloaded photos to be uploaded to a website that has a max file size of 20 mb. When I download an image to use for a background (some sort of a pattern that is normally somewhere around 800 x 800 size) the image is about 180 kb which is perfect. Unfortunately, the image has a poor ppi resolution and prints extremely blurry so in photoshop under image size, I increase the resolution so that the file size & resolution is bigger. This takes a lot of guessing on my part.

For example, if I increased the image resolution to 100000000 ppi, the file size would end up way over 20 mb which does me no good. So what I am wondering is, is if there is a way to optimize the the resolution of the image, given the file size limitations, without all of the guess and check?

If this looks confusing, I apologize and will gladly explain more. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Folks,



I'm ready for printing but don't understand the correct sizing in PS,Staples uses Publisher so they can't help on the file size. When trying the 11x17 Dimension poster size I get a small thumbnail box,After zooming to 3200 and copying everything over it's awful & fuzy.





3200%^^^

Not really sure how to figure out the correct Height x Width or what's wrong.

any help is greatly appreciated

Hi everyone,

I would like to ask what is the Resolution for a Standard ID size for a company. I am using the size 2.103" x 3.38" and 72 resolution pixels/inches, I don't know if this is correct cause it seems very small.

Please give some advice.


Thank you,

ok so i stuffed up

i had an image i processed and it turned out nice , i resized it for posting on the web , then i forgot to resize back , i know i should of duplicated it first , then i was mucking around and my history was only set too 20 , anyway i cant go back too the original size so im stuck with a small file size

i have the original i was wondering if i can copy the layer adjustments from the small file to the original

I have about 700 RAW images I want to batch process through PS.
All I want to do is reduce their size from 5184 X 3456 to 900 X 600 @ a resolution of 150 and save as JPG files.

Since RAW files run through ACR first and there's no way to reduce images size I just run it and end up with full size jpg's.
I run the JPG's again through Bridge and select Tools|Photoshop|Image Processor and selected "Open first image to apply settings" but when I run this there is no pause to reduce the file size.
It just runs through all the images allowing me no option to "Apply Settings".

I realize I can record an action to do this and use Photoshop|Batch but I'd like to know why this isn't working.
Thanks guys.

Hi,

I made a newspaper advt of 8x7cms. I worked on a actual size @ 600dpi file. The result looks extremely clear and the text is very legible, but when it turned out on the newsprint the text dulled down as if swallowed by the solid black bg it was on. The design isn't very busy or anything. Its just solid black bg with pure white text on it. Im using photoshop CS4. I rendered to a high res jpg and converted to a pdf (since the newspaper wanted it as pdf) and delivered it. The pdf also was razor sharp even at 500%. But yet in print the white text was as if it thinned down and thereby looked dull and incomprehensible.

Any help on what i should do will be greatly appreciated please.

Thanks

Image shot on 5D Mk3 - using viewfinder not Live View.
Image converted to DNG.
In CC Bridge dimensions are as expected 5760 x 3840, in CC Photoshop under Image Size, dimensions are 1920 x 1280 (Original Size).

Same image in CS6 PS, dimensions given are correct i.e. 5760 x 3840

Any pointers as to what is going on and how to get the correct dimensions showing in CC PS, would be much appreciated.
