Printing help required.
      06/11/2007 08:50

Hi Folks,
I seem to be overly complicating the task of printing from digital files. For example, with a resolution of 300ppi, I assume that an image of dimensions 1800ppi x 1800ppi would give me a 6" x 6" print, however when I check the image size in print preview it suggests I will actually print out something much larger than this. I don`t have a printer so I need to send the files away for printing - I`m also traveling in abroad so I don`t have access to any course material (I left Mod 10 at home as this a rushed unplanned trip) or anything that can clarify what I am doing wrong.
Can anyone advise how I set up the file size so that cropped images will print out to the desired size in the hands of a commercial printer??
Thanks,
Chris
