New Image Size and Resolution in CC

Hi there.
Ok, maybe i'm missing something, but how do i reduce the ppi's of a given image in the Photoshop CC? Changing it in the image size, in the Resolution field, it acomplish nothing. It logs an entry in the History panel, but nothing changes in the picture. Did Adobe changed how this works, or it's just a bug?
Thank you.

Try setting to real-world measurement, like inches or cm.
Hi Charles, i think that change in cm/mm/in it's the only way to change the image ppi (in my case save/resample it to 108ppi). Can you confirm that this is correct?
Anyway when i go to image size (new panel of CC) the w/h are:
1) grey and always set in pixel with resample flagged.
2) always set in inches with resample NON-flagged (also if my ruler unit is in Pixel).
(and actually that is not new behavior. CS6 behaved same way when width and height were set to percent)
In CS6 and CC i never seen w/h in percent  - where is my error?
Many thanks!

  • How do you change the image size and resolution in photoshop everytime I change the width the height changes my measurements will not stay

    Can someone assist me with changing image size and resolution.  each time I change the width the height changes and vice/versa?

    There's a chain link between width and height. The point is to keep the aspect ratio the same, otherwise your picture would get stretched.
    You click on the chain-link to shut that off and you can adjust width and height separately.
    Also could you give us your version of Photoshop, what OS you are running it on (Windows 7 for example) and what exactly you want to do with your document?
    Resolution is the print term for how many pixels will be printed on an inch of paper. It doesn't apply if your image is intended for screen viewing.

  • Image Sizes and Resolution standards?

    are there any standards for image sizes and resolution for mobile games specifically: backgrounds and backdrops?
    i will be porting my game for various cell phones and i'd like to resize images to fit perfect on all cell phone screens, so what would be the best way to do this and what should my image attributes (height, width) be?
    i've tried researching on google to see if there were any standards and couldn't seem to find any. if these standards are non-existent what image sizes have you used that you found worked best on various mobile phones?
    thanks

    Google's right, there are no real standards for screen sizes. Some are more common than others, but there are dozens of common screen sizes.
    The most common are...
    176x208 (same as 176x220, but with no status bar)
    240x320
    176x220
    [Getjar resolution stats|http://www.mobref.com/statistics/world/gDispResolution]
    Unfortunately, many phones are slightly more or slightly less than those. If you cover those, you're fairly well off though. If you can make your game resolution independent, that's your best option, though with intricate overlays it may be nearly impossible to do.

  • Image size and resolution question.

    Is an image at W 48.667 x H 32.444 inches at 72 res the same as an image that I could convert in photoshop to 300 res and then the with "Resample Image" clicked off would be W 11.68 x H 7.78 at 300 res for printing purposes? I'm asking this questions because after exporting 200 images from Lightroom 1.4, putting them into an wedding album I realized the images were not at 300 res but the first size listed above. I'm trying not to have to rebatch and have to put them back into the album. I sent the question to NAPP and got this back"
    "If you do the math you'll see that the answer is "no."
    48x72=3456 pixels; 32x72=2304 pixels
    11.68x300=3504 pixels; 7.78x300=2334 pixels."
    I did the math and it comes up to 5760 vs 5830. Pretty darn close. So would an image printed out with both settings print the about the same quality or am I missing something?
    Thanks
    Bob

    Bob's question is a common one. And one of the first that most of us struggled to understand. Let's see if I can shed some light to help clarify the matter.
    o The image starts out with a given number of pixels from the camera, scanner, or whatever was its source. The resolution only matters when it comes time to print the image.
    72 dpi was once a common resolution for displaying on a computer monitor. Today 90 dpi is more common monitor resolution.
    o Let's assume that the image is 3504 x 2336 pixels (which I got from his size @ 72 dpi).
    o In "image size", if you do _not_ have 'resample image' checked, all you are doing is _rescaling the image. The image resolution is whatever you enter ...
    For example, if you enter 360 dpi -- the native printing resolution of many Epson printers -- you get a print size of 9.733 x 6.489 inches
    o Let's say you want to print this image at 360 dpi in portrait on 13 x 19 inch paper with a one inch border on the sides. That would make the short dimension of the image 11 inches and the long would work out to 16.5.
    To do that you need to _resample_ the image to change the size. More pixels will be made. The resolution stays at 360 dpi. So check the 'resample image' box.
    After resampling to get the print size and resolution you want, the pixel dimension goes to 5960 x 3960 (from 3504 x 2336). Those new pixels came at a price, but that is a matter for another thread and a lot of personal bias.
    Hope that helped.
    P.S. The answer to your question, Bob, is yes. With resample off in PhotoShop, your original images should have gone to 11.68 x 7.787 inches @300 dpi.
    In looking at the rest of your original post, it seems that the export didn't work the way that you wanted. Do I read right that the images turned out to be 11.68 x 7.787 @ 72 dpi? Can't help with that as I don't do Lightroom.

  • IPhone app image size and resolution?

    The icon and image creation guidelines specify all of the custom icons and images that I need to create for my app in two sizes: one for the iPhone 3 screen (and earlier) at 163 pixels per inch; and one for the iPhone 4 screen at 326 pixels per inch. While this guideline specifies the image sizes in pixels, I am unable to find any reference to the required resolution in pixels per inch. Should I save the images at 163 and 326 pixels per inch respectively?

      As I said it makes no difference to viewing, all things being equal, only to downloading the resultant image if needed for printing.
    If you were concerned with print quality you would probably save on maximum image quality -12 in resizing - but up to 90% - save for web - would make hardly a noticeable difference, except for file size.
    You can reduce image quality to optimize file size using the slider in save for web and by looking at the before and after preview.
    If using jpeg, it’s also possible to select progressive, which loads from top to bottom, without the user waiting for the full image to load.
    There really is no point in using 1000 dpi which only blows the pixel dimensions way beyond even the best HD monitor, capable of displaying 1920 x 1080p
    　 

  • Image size and resolution....just when I thought I understood!

    I couldn't find this question anywhere else, but I can't be the only one who's come across this:
    I have an image in a folder...finder/explorer tells me that it's 638px X 479px, and 234KB.
    I open it in Photoshop and go to Image Size. PS says it is indeed 638x479pixels, but that it's 5.4" x 4.06" at 300pp and the "pixel dimensions" add up to 895KB?
    (Then, when I place it in InDesign, at 100%, it measures around 2.1" x 1.6"? What's going on? If I input those dimensions into the Image Size dialogue box in PS, without resampling, it would have to be 750.25ppi. Obviously it's not.)
    How big is this file really? Which program do I trust...windows explorer or photoshop?

    The ppi resolution is simply a number stored with the file to indicate how large to display the image. The height and width in pixels are part of the image data itself. So the pixel dimensions are always the number to trust.
    You can open an image in Photoshop and in Image Size change the resolution (ppi) and if you don't check Resample Image the actual image data don't change at all, only the number stating the pixels per inch.
    The reason the Pixel Dimensions size in KB is different in Photoshop vs. Explorer is that the file is likely a Jpeg, which is compressed. When Photoshop calculates pixel dimensions, it does this based on an uncompressed file (each pixel=3 bytes for an 8-bit RGB image.) When Jpeg compression is used, a pixel can be much less than 3 bytes, and the actual number varies depending on the image quality and how detailed the image is.
    To see this, save your image as an uncompressed Tiff format and the size will very closely match the pixel dimensions. But if saved as a Jpeg, it will be smaller but still the same height and width and the same ppi.
    If you are using CS3, it automatically uses a form of lossless compression if saving in PSD format with "Maximize Compatibility" disabled. So in this case the file size will also be smaller than the pixel dimensions number, but if saved in Tiff, it will match that number instead.

  • Scanning a 35mm slide film and trying to get it a certain image size and resolution

    Hi All,
    I am using the Nikon Super CoolScan8000 and Vuescan program to scan a slide film. I am scanning at this setting: scan resolution 4000 dpi. I have to make it a certain dimension that someone has been asking me for. They want the image at Width = 60cm (approx. 23 inches) and 300 dpi.
    When I scan at 4000 dpi, I'm not sure what size to make the printed width. I have experimented numerous times and I've had no luck with getting exactly what I want. It seems that when I make the width 60 cm (the height adjusts proportionately) and the dpi at 300, the quality is not that great, which it definitely needs to be because it will be printed at a large size.
    Someone please help ASAP!
    Thank you!
    PS I am using Adobe Photoshop CS3 and I also have Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

    You can only get 228 ppi out of the end product. That should be good enough.

  • Report on placed image size and resolution?

    I was asked by a client today "does CS4 allow you to create a report of the filenames and the sizes they're  used at?"
    They're getting slides scanned at a higher resolution and the higher the resolution the greater the cost.
    I guess I need: what shows up in the link info panel (actual and effective ppi), the dimension in inches or centimetres, and (ideally) the width and height of the object boxes they're placed in (to make sure the cropping isn't too drastic).
    Anyone know of any scripts or some secret panel that I can't seem to find?

    See this post.
    Might be just what you need, or could be with a bit of tweaking.

  • Original Size and Resolution (How do I access that file)

    If you go to your photo album and click 'veiw larger image' you receive this message:
    Note: This picture may be displayed smaller than the actual picture size. The original uploaded image size and resolution are preserved in your account.
    The same question was posted with a solution to send the photo to your e-mail account. The does not resolve my problem. I should be able to access the original size and resolution here, online, in my account.

    You should be able to sign in to your account with Adobe to retrieve the serial number.  Then download version 7 from here:
    Download Photoshop Elements products | 9, 8, 7
    Worst case option:
    Download the trial version of Photoshop Elements 13:
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
    and save it as a tiff or jpeg and you can open it with any photo viewer.
    You may even find that you want to buy the latest version.

  • PSE 4 -Best Size and Resolution for Burning to a DVD?

    I would like to burn a slideshow that is playable on most DVD-players from about 80 RAW files. I plan to "Author" (correct term?) it with Roxio's Easy Media Creator which, I believe, makes an MPEG-4.
    Correct me, but I beleive PS Elements 4.0 only makes PDFs or WMV slidehsows. So I have to burn the DVD using another utility.
    To what image size and resolution should I reduce my RAW files, so that they can be shown on standard (not HD) television sets?

    Hi Julie: Look here:

  • Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution)   Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

    Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution)   Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

    You're welcome, and thank you for the reply.
    2) Yesterday I made the subclips with the In-Out Points and Command-U, the benefit is that I've seen the clip before naming it. Now I'm using markers, it's benefit is that I can write comment and (the later) clip name at once, the drawback is that I have to view to the next shot's beginning before knowing what the shot contains.
    But now I found out that I can reconnect my clips independently to the format I converted the master clip to. I reconnected the media to the original AVI file and it worked, too! The more I work with, the more I'm sold on it... - although it doesn't seem to be able to read and use the date information within the DV AVI.
    1) Ok, I tried something similar within FCE. Just worked, but the file size still remains. Which codec settings should I use? Is the export to DV in MOV with a quality of 75% acceptable for both file size and quality? Or would be encoding as H.264 with best quality an option for archiving, knowing that I have to convert it back to DV if I (maybe) wan't to use it for editing later? Or anything else?
    Thank's in advance again,

  • Image size and dimensions in Safari

    Is there a fast method of viewing image size and dimentions in Safari? I can open image in new tab and see its width and height in tab/window name. I can save image to the Desktop and see file size but it's not convenient. Is there some another way without opening an saving image somewhere like Control+click -> Properties?
    iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Pat,
    You don't need to set the image size as such. The image prints on the page according to two sets of criteria:
    1. Whether you set dpi to custom or a specific value, and
    2. The page margins you set either as a printing once-off, or as a new printing pre-set.
    For example, I print "arty" photos in a portrait format on A4 matte paper. Left and right margins are around 3cm, top margin is around 3cm, bottom margin is around 5 cm (all numbers are from memory...). I have a title just below the image.
    I created this particular page setup for a certain photo and liked it so much I saved it as another print preset. Any photo I print using that preset fits within the margins defined. The very next print might be the same photo, but this time printing A3+ on Ilford Galerie Smooth Pearl. Choose the photo, select the relevant print pre-set, print. Re-sizing is irrelevant - the print in both cases is coming from the processed raw at maximum resolution.
    Regards,
    Calx

  • Circular and oval cropping at set size and resolution?

    I know how to use the M tool to create circles and ovals and i know you can set that to certain dimensions, but that doesn't do everything I need.
    How do you crop circles and ovals out of a photo, at a set size (for example, a 1 inch circle ) at a set resolution for printing?  What I need to do is crop circular and oval images out of a photo, say at 250 dpi, then paste them onto a blank white page for printing.
    So if I've got let's say a photo that's 14x10 inches at 300dpi, I want to be able to go in, crop out an oval or circle, with as much or as little of the photo that I can or want to, setting that automatically to a certain dimension and dpi, then paste it into a blank white page I've already created at that same d
    When finished I'd have maybe 20 or 30 images on a page that I can flatten all the layers and print.
    I can't find a way to set size and resolution with anything other than the regular square crop tool.

    You can make an action and use it as one step automation to achieve that on an initial selection.
    Step by step instructions:
    With the Elliptical Marquee Tool, make the desired selection on a image.
    Open the Actions panel (Window > Actions (Alt+F9), from its menu at the top right or corresponding buttons at the bottom, choose New Action, and in the dialog that appears press the Record button.
    From the Image menu, choose Crop.
    From the Selection menu, choose Inverse (Ctrl+Shift+I)
    Press the d key on your keyboard to reset the foreground/background color swatches.
    Press Ctrl + Delete keys on your keyboard to fill with white.
    From the Image menu, choose Image Size (Ctrl+Alt+I), make sure the Resample Image is checked, and in the Document Size section enter the desired dimensions and resolution and press OK.
    In the Actions Panel press the Stop Recording button.
    Now you can copy or drag the image to another image.
    For the next image make the oval selection, go to the Actions panel, select the actions you created above, and press the play button. You can also create a keyboard shortcut in the action's property accessible by double clicking the action.
    The creation of this action assumes that in the final image you will be composing oval images on white background without overlapping their rectangular bounding boxes. If you plan to overlap them then the action must be modified to make the image a transparent layer and delete outside the oval instead of filling with white.

  • Firefox mage quality and resolution was superb when I used XP and Vista. Now that I have Windows 7, however (with the Firefox 3.6.3 version), the image quality and resolution is poor. Please help me!
