How do you change an iphoto size to 300DPI high res for exporting

How do you change an iphoto  to 300 DPI high res for exporting to email?

Short answer: the dpi is set when you decide what size you're printing at.
Long Answer: Dpi means nothing in the digital world of your computer. There are no "inches" to have "dots per..." Size is measured in pixels. That's the same on your camera. It doesn't take 10 x 8 or 6 x 4 shots. It takes shots measured in megapixels. For instance 4,000 x 3,000 is a 12 megapixel camera.
Using that example, that shot from that camera has 12 million pixels. So that's how many "Dots" there are. To decide the ratio of dots per inch, you now need to decide the "inches" part. And that's printing.  Print at 10 x 8 and the dpi will be 4,000/10 or about 400 dpi. At 6 x 4 then it's 4,000/6 or 660 dpi. Work the other way: Print at 300 dpi and the resulting image will be about 13 inches on the longer side.
So, your photo as a fixed number of pixels. Changing the dimensions of the print will vary the dpi, changing the dpi will vary the dimensions of the print.

  • How do you change the default size of the print batch size for mail merge in Publisher 2010?

    I appended this question to another thread with the same topic but have not received a reply, so I'll try with a new question. Publisher 2010, when doing mail merge, will only merge and print two records at a time. How do you change the default size of
    the print batch size? This is for a 4 page document, 8 1/2 x 11, printed two sides on 11 x 17. I've tried all the suggestions that were in the other thread. The response that was marked as the answer by the moderator is incorrect and does not work. Nothing
    suggested in that thread works. A registry fix that worked for Publisher 2003 won't work because the print batch size key does not exist in the registry for Pub 2010. At least not that I can find. Printing to an XPS document doesn't work. It asks for a filename,
    prints 2 records, asks for new file name, prints 2 records, asks for new file name, and so on. The same for printing to a PDF document. Merging to a new Pub document doesn't work. When I print that job every other sheet is turned over. I.e., sheet one has
    pages 1 & 3 on top, next sheet has 3 & 4 on top, and so on. This makes it impossible to run them through the folder. The same thing happens when I print that complete merged document to XPS or PDF. I have the latest drivers installed for our printer, a Toshiba
    2500C copier/printer connected via network. What do I need to do to to change the batch size to something reasonable, like 100 records?

    It's been two weeks since I posted this question. What does it take to get an answer? I cannot believe it's being ignored, nor can I believe that someone in MS doesn't have an answer.

  • How do you change the ont size

    How do you change the font size for one word ?

    Basically, you need to wrap the word in a <span> tag, and apply either a class or an inline style to the span. Using a class is better because you can reuse it in other pages, or other parts of the same page. Also, changing the font size in the class will apply the changes to all instances of the class. With an inline style, you have to change each one individually.
    To wrap a word in a <span> tag, select the word, then press Ctrl+T (Cmd+T on a Mac) to bring up the Wrap Tag dialog. Type "sp" (without the quotes), and press Enter twice. Then create a class using the CSS Designer. Apply the class to the word by selecting it again, and select the class from the Class drop-down menu in the Property inspector.
    To create an inline style, select the word, and click the CSS button on the left of the Property inspector. Select the font size you want from the Size drop-down menu. If the size you want isn't listed, just type the value in the Size field.

  • HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE WINDOW SIZE OF EBUSINESS SUITE ON STARTUP

    HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE WINDOW SIZE OF EBUSINESS SUITE ON STARTUP
    How do you change the window size for Ebusiness Suite after you log in. Currently it displays at 100% of the screen. I want to set it smaller, at some %

    I don't know if there is a way to set this. Some user's may prefer different sizes of window, depending on their job duties. For example, we have 170 Systems document management integrated with purchasing and payables so users shrink the Oracle window to fill about 60% of the screen while 170 uses the remaining 40% to display the scanned document.

  • How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?

    How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?  I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail.  Changing the screen density is not a good option.
    Thanks

    I downloaded Tinkertool.  Found the font section and increased the size of most selections.  The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label.  The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4.  Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either.  I'll keep working.  Restarted all apps after changes as well.

  • How can you change the display size on the task bar

    how do you change the display size on the task bar

    If, however, you want to change the size of the display of the menubar, meaning make the icons and text larger, there is no way to do that directly other than to change the resolution of the screen.
    You can change the as-viewed size of that temporarily by using either -
    • Mouse zoom - if you have a Magic Mouse (Apple wireless mouse), hold down the Control key and use the scroll up and scroll down finger gestures on the mouse.
    • Zoom - go to System Preferences > Universal Access > Seeing and turn on Zoom. You can also use the noted keyboard shortcut to enable/disable this Zoom feature.

  • How do you change the font size under the event and iphoto view photos?

    I would like to change the font size in iPhoto under the photos that appear in the Events view and in the Photos view. I was told by a tech at Apple that it cannot be done because it is built into the software. What you see is what you get. That seems unusual because the font size in the Photo view is smaller than that in the Events view. The Font control that exists in File/Edit are for fonts used when you open a photo and add your own captionI and have nothing to do with the various views. Does anyone know a way to do this?   Thanks

    I'm afraid it really is WYSIWYG. It can't be changed.  You can send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • How do you change the mtu size

    i recently bought a WRT54G wireless router and i have my desktop directly hooked up (not wireless) and every time i go to play games or surf the net it has some pretty severe lag spikes. i have done some searching and i see something about changing the MTU to a certain amount but i have no idea what that is or how to change it. so if u have any suggestions for me that would be appreciated

    on the ui , under the " basic setup " subtab , you have an option to change the MTU size..by default the MTU is disabled...change it to enable and change the MTU size as required...

  • How do you change the font size on a scanned document?

    I scanned a document with very small print and saved to computer in hopes of enlarging font size and cannot understand how to do. Please help.

    Hello, I think you're out of luck with the toolbar, but not on 10.9 to check right now, you can change the minimum font size used in Safari Prefereces for web pages.
    Perhaps Zoom will work for you...

  • How do you change default note size

    This must be an old question but search found me nothing. I just want to find a default to change the note size for all slides to something besides the very large one I'm now stuck with. Thanks!

    Thanks, Sam. Yes, I could easily change the individual slides, too, but there seems to be a rather large hole in the program, if you're promoting this for kiosk use or even just being able to send to possible interested parties without being present and therefore you want to narrate it. AARGH! Is there NO one at Apple who even occasionally looks at it's own forums! And it's not in the Knowledge database either.

  • How do you change default page size in pdf?

    I purchased CREATE solely to create a pdf file from a scanned document. I created the PDF but the default page size is 30.15 x 20.83 INCHES. I cannot seem to change the page size. I called support services 4 times (talking with Sakthivel, Shashank, Medhet, and one other.) Each time they indicated that they would connect me to the correct people and they disconnected. I want some answers please. This seems to be a simple question. Is Adobe CREATE merely a scam?

    CreatePDF, perhaps?  Try the forum at http://forums.adobe.com/community/createpdf

  • How do you change the font size in grey area of toolbar?

    How can I change the font on the grey area to make it bigger? I updated to mountain lion and it changed the font.

    Those are hard coded, and cannot be changed as far as I know, without delving into the application itself with a code editor.
