72dpi photo converted to 300dpi.  What are the disadvantages of doing this?

Hi,
Somehow I misplaced my original 300dpi Tiff photo, but was able to locate the same photo on my MAC which I had converted to a 72dpi JPEG photo. I need the photo to be of a higher resolution and increased the dpi to 300 as well as saved it as a TIFF instead for printing purposes. Is this recommended? I recall reading somewhere that it is never a good idea to increase the dpi once it has been decreased?
Thanks!

There is a good standard answer for that question, "That depends." Once an image has been saved as a JPEG image, some of the original image will have been lost. That is something that is simply inherent with JPEG images. And each time that image is saved again as a JPEG, more of the image will be lost. This loss can be minimized by using higher quality settings in Photoshop Elements. In reality, if high quality is specified it will typically take several saves before image loss begins to be visible.
Once you have opened the JPEG in Photoshop Elements, you will have the highest quality that you will ever be able to get from that file. And you will not be editing the JPEG, but rather the pixels that were stored in the JPEG file. If you resize to 300 PPI without resampling you will probably not do any further damage to the image, but the dimensions will be smaller because those pixels have been squeezed closer together. But if you have to resample in order to make the image larger, then Photoshop Elements will have to create additional pixels, and this could produce undesirable results.
But it isn't going to hurt anything to try. Open the JPEG in Photoshop Elements and see what you can do. Whatever the result, make sure to save it to a new filename. You will still have your original JPEG image to go back to if necessary.

    If you have been backing up on Timemachine.
    All you need to do is enter time machine... Then the rest is obvious.
    Find the iTunes folder and hit 'Restor'.
    If not the only way to get all your iTunes music back is to enter iTunes Store.
    On the right hand side you should see 'Purchased'.
    Click 'purchased' and there you have it.

  • My 4th gen 32gb iPod touch recently crashed for more than 12 hours during which time it was completely unresponsive. This is not the first time it has crashed but by far the longest time it has been unresponsive. What are the likely causes of this?

    I don't regularly use any apps beyond Windows Live, Facebook, Skype etc. but app crashes are becoming frequent and this recent blackout was disturbing. What are the potential causes of this and how can I avoid them in the future?

    it's weird , your device is not jailbreraked and it crashes? my device is jailbreaked and i almost have the same problems.
    look, to avoid these problems:
    1- dont open too much apps , and if you do , close them by multitasking menu.
    2-try sometimes to turn off and on your device , its like refreshing ( called "respringing" in jailbreaked devices.
    if you have the same problem , see an apple specialist.
    plz mask as helphul question.
    thanks.

  • What are the disadvantages of secondary index

    Hi all,
    Can anybody tell me what are the disadvantages of creating secondary index?
    Also tell me what are the precautions should be taken to create a secondary index?

    Hi Vinil,
    You can search on SCN with the same subject... you will get lots of threads discussed on it...
    Still for your reference...
    secondary indices use disk space, not memory space. They are only in memory when they are used. Disk space is roughly width times number of records, can be GBs.
    Main disadvantages are:
    + indexes are updated when table is changed, i.e. the additional index makes other operations slower. You must check the importance of your application, if it is much lower than the standard usage than you can not create a secondary index.
    + Secondary indices can confuse the database optimzer, especially if you use field which appear also in other indices. DB calculates usefulness of different indices by some assumptions (check other sources for details), if two indices are similar, than the assumptions can lead to wrong decisions. Your new index can be used for other statements, even when it is not optimal there. Result your index causes problems somewhere else!
    Hope it will solve your problem..
    Thanks & Regards

  • What are the disadvantages of implementing APO- Demand Planning without improvements or cleaning up the MRP. in other words is DP implementation dependant on MRP process. Gurus please advise

    HI All. What are the disadvantages of implementing APO- Demand Planning without improvements or cleaning up the MRP. in other words is DP implementation dependant on MRP process. Gurus please advise

    Hi Amol,
    DP is the demand planning machine, here you estimate your forecast (future sales).
    The MRP is a supply planning machine, here you use estimate the replenishment.
    Both machines in a technical perspective are independent one each other. Now in a business perspective they are not: The problem that you will have if you don´t clean your MRP elements is not a problem in DP itself. I mean, you can have a very success implementation in DP, your forecast accuracy will be very good.. and you will get a very good forecast, but when the MRP run and estimate the replenishment, the effort that you made in DP will not be translated in good results and your planning situation will be still not good.
    Kind Regards,
    Mariano

  • What are the disadvantages in reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge

    hi
    what are the disadvantages in reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge.
    by using this can we create any number of field headings? is there no limit? explain in detail?

    1. reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge have many lititations such as you can not change the sequences of tha column. Suppose in table the fields are f1,f2,f3,f4 and f5. But in display i want the sequesce say f3,f4,f2,f1,f5. Using the fm reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge is not possible. But you can do it by manually process by passing the sequence in col_pos field of the fieldcatalog.
    2. Similarly you can give the column length as you wish by 'outputlen' paramater of fieldcatalog.
    3.  you can give the column heading of your own by seltext_m, seltext_l, seltext_s paramater of fieldcatalog. 
    4. You can make a field hotspot by hotspot parameter of fieldcatalog.
    5. you can emphasize a field by emphasize parameter of fieldcatalog.
    6. You can display the sum of a field by do_sum parameters of fieldcatalog.
    there are many more functionality which you can not get by FM  reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge.
    What you can do is that use both the FM to filled the functionality of the fieldcatalog  what you get autometically from the reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge and for the rest of the functinality you can add the functionality by manually append the fieldcalatog. It is call semi autometic fieldcatalog built.

  • What are the disadvantages of generic delta extraction

    Hi all,
    what are the disadvantages of generic delta extraction.
    how function module generic extraction works.
    Thanks,
    Madhu.

    hi madhu,
    Pls refer ths,To learn more about Generic Extraction pls read BW350 book.
    Gereric Extraction can be done in 3 ways.
    If you go to transaction RSO2 in R/3 side, provide tech name for data source and click create.
    you will get the 3 options.
    1)From a DB Table
    2)From a DB View
    3)From Functional module/ Infoset Query
    in first option you can directly give a standard or custom build talbe name. in second option you can select the necessary fields from more than one talbe(eiter standard or custom). In third option you will create a function module or Query to extract data. When creating function modules you can use standard function modules as a template e.g. RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE.
    see weblog : /people/siegfried.szameitat/blog/2005/09/29/generic-extraction-via-function-module
    If you want to enable delta for generic extractor you choose the option delta and provide necessary settings.
    Generic extraction is when your extraction is not satisfied by either BC or LIS/LO. It can be using a view / query/table/FM
    Here the changed records can be isentified by :
    1. Based on the date of creation or last change ( Delta based on 0Calday)
    2. Based on the record number ( Numeric Pointer )
    3. Based on time of change ( Timestamp)
    real time examples would be
    1. Master Record creation like customer ID creation
    2. Timesheets in SAP PS
    3. Invoive details / Sales Order Details.
    Pls check this web logs for clear Idea.

    Have a look at these threads too.
    Tables
    Transfer Structure
    The steps for creating extractor using Function Module.
    1. Create new Function group (if you have already not done so) in Se80
    2. Copy Function module "RSAX_BIW_GET_DATA_SIMPLE" with suitable name.
    3. Change the code that populate data.
    Following table may give you the guideline for parameters.
    Parameter Description
    I_REQUNR (import) BW provides this request identifier. It is a system-generated identifier in the form REQU_XXXXXX. BW uses this same identifier in all function module calls that relate to a single load.
    I_DSOURCE (import) The name of the generic extractor
    I_MAXSIZE (import) The maximum number of records that BW expects to be in each data packet
    I_INITFLAG (import) A Boolean flag that indicates if this is the initialization (first) call to the function module
    I_READ_ONLY (import) A test flag not needed in most extraction scenarios
    I_T_SELECT (table) This table holds any selections from the BW InfoPackage. The function module should examine these selections and only return data that matches the selections.
    I_T_FIELD (table) This table holds the fields that BW requests
    E_T_DATA (table) The function module fills this table with data records. These records then return to BW as data packets. This table has the same structure as the extract structure defined in the generic DataSource.
    NO_MORE_DATA (exception) The function module raises this exception when no more data is available
    ERROR_PASSED_TO_MESS_HANDLER (exception) The function module raises this exception if an error occurred during the extraction. It alerts BW to check for error logs.
    Change following code to put the selection fields
    Select ranges
    RANGES: L_R_CARRID FOR SFLIGHT-CARRID,
    L_R_CONNID FOR SFLIGHT-CONNID.
    Change following to populate data
    OPEN CURSOR WITH HOLD S_CURSOR FOR
    SELECT (S_S_IF-T_FIELDS) FROM SFLIGHT
    WHERE CARRID IN L_R_CARRID AND
    CONNID IN L_R_CONNID.
    ENDIF. "First data package ?
    Fetch records into interface table.
    named E_T_'Name of extract structure'.
