Format length of 1024 with 300 ppi

I am entering a photo contest which states "images should be formatted of 1024 on the longest side at a resolution of 300 ppi."  How do I do this?  When I crop it as an 8x10,  the image size is 3207 x 2565 which meets the 300 ppi requirement for a photo contest.  However, when I export the picture out to get 1024 pixels on the longest side, the image size is 1024 x 819 or 72 pixels / inch.  I don't know if this meets the requirements.   Please help.  Thanks!

iPhoto will not export at 1024 on the longest side while also exporting at 300ppi
This is a notional measurement and really means very little, but you can do it with Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.

  • Just imported a photo with 300 ppi. afterwards i changed it with iphoto. as i opened it agin with gimp it has only 72 dpi, Why?

    I have done the following.
    1 Bildscan with 300 dpi.
    2. Import in Iphoto
    3. with iPhoto i cutted out the part i needed
    4. Edit with gimp to find out the actual DPI ==> result 72 dpi
    My question
    May I use this Phot in a Photobook? (apple recomends at least 300 dpi) How may I check the DPI count in Iphoto in order to be sure it complies the minimal requirements?
    Best regards

    It doesn't matter.
    What matters is the total number of pixels in the image. Screen display defaults to 72 dpi. All that means is that the dimensions of the photo are bigger - longer x wider. The dpi is only set when you decide what size your print is going to be.
    For example, if you have a 12 megapixel image: (4,000 x 3,000 pixels)  and print that at 100 dpi, then it will be resulting print will be 40 inches by 30 inches (4,000/100 etc)
    Print it at 300 dpi and it will 13.3 inches by 10 inches
    etc

  • Preflight panel Info. shows my placed 300 ppi PDFs at much less effective resolution

    Ï'm brand new to InDesign (graphic designer who primarily works in Illustrator, some Photoshop, until now). I understand resolution and PPI but not necessarily in-depth knowledge of the related necessary workflow needed within InDesign, if that makes sense. I've spent hours and hours the last couple days trying to learn the finer points of InDesign as I work on an ad magazine for my company, but I can't for the life of me figure this particular issue out, and I'm guessing (hoping!) it's a very simple solution.
    I placed several 300 PPI PDF images in the magazine document (vector PDF's I created in Illustrator, saved as editable PDF's).
    I created a Preflight Panel in InDesign with a custom Profile, named it Print Ready, and set image resolution to 250 to ensure as I finish up this magazine design that things are press/print ready. It now shows 5 images with Image resolutions lower than the 250 minimum - all of the pdfs I placed. They all show very low PPI, 74, 109, etc. The 300 PPI pdfs were already sized to the exact proportions they needed to be in the InDesign file and for print, so there was very minimal scaling to fit the images into their frames, so I'm assuming scaling couldn't have created this issue and it has something to do with my workflow and the way I'm bringing them in.
    I'd like to point out that this magazine document was created by another designer, and I'm picking up where they've left off, adding some final images and copy. The other picture images she had in the file appear fine, no errors in Preflight Panel...even some preview stock photo's with the X's across them that appear to be very low resolution (we haven't purchased them and replaced them yet in this InDesign file), so not sure I understand why those are not showing up in my Image Resolution as errors??
    Anyhow, at some point I came across the Document Presets, which is currently set to Default - and when I click Define, I noticed it shows the PPI at 72. Does this mean that files I place are "brought in" at 72 PPI, regardless if their original PPI is higher? And if so, how do I change that?
    If not, how do resolve or correct? 
    Sorry for the very long explanation - just want to give as many details as I can, since I'm not exactly sure which details are important to figuring out the problem. Thanks in advance!!

    I've checked the resolution in Photoshop just as a double-check and it shows resolution as 300 PPI. When you say "because they can be mixed" do you mean because elements and graphics with the PDF can be of varying resolutions? I hadn't thought of that, if that's what you meant. I do have some items within my pdf that might be lower resolution.
    If these show up in my Preflight Panel as an issue, does this mean they would be flagged also with the Printer? In trying to find a resolution I read several forum discussions about how Printers often run your document through a Preflight process and will send it back when there are low resolution images in the document.
    Is there some other way to be sure these images are in the InDesign document as 300 PPI so I can know they will in fact print correctly?
    PS - Peter - thanks for the super quick response! And I saw your the highlighted "Exceptional Contributor" on the right sidebar for the InDesign forum - clearly well-deserved! Congrats

  • Illustrator wont copy & paste at 300 ppi regardless of settings

    I just recently reformated my computer and I've been having an issue with copy and paste from Illustrator to Photoshop. Before I could copy a 2"x2" vector box from Illustrator into photoshop making a new document and the size and resolution would match. That is the new document would say 2"x2" at 300 ppi in photoshop and the preset would read "clipboard". I would then hit ok and paste and it would match perfectly. Now since I've reformated, photoshop always creates a new document with the wrong size regardless of the settings I enter in Illustrator or photoshop. I have document raster and effects set at 300 ppi in Illustrator and I have the new document set at 300 in photoshop, but it always transfers the 2"x2" box at 72 dpi regardless of settings. Again this used to work before so I'm assuming there is some setting I forgot about. Does anyone know? The main issue is the clipboard preset is not matching the document size, its almost as if Illustartor is telling photoshop it's a different resolution when it's not. Copying to 72 ppi seems to have no issue, which makes me think Illustrator just isn't sending it out at 300 ppi, but I don't know why as I have the document set at 300 ppi. I confirmed this as I can make a 2"x2" box in photoshop and paste into Illustrator and it reads as 2"x2" at 300 ppi in Illustrator, but if I copy from Illustrator back to photoshop it pastes it at 72 ppi. Changing the settings to 300 ppi in Illustrator seems to have no effect. Might be a bug. Should I try reinstalling?

    Unfortunately, it's a known bug.

    You can try putting in a bug report - perhaps they will be more motivated to fix it when more people complain.

  • How do I do use the custom code and format for a percentage with 2 decimals in Report Builder 3.0?

    In Report Builder 3.0, I have the following custom code entered:
      Public Function SafeDivide(Numerator as String, Denominator as String) as String
    Try
    If Numerator = “” or Denominator = “” then
    Return “-“
    End if
    If Numerator = “-“ or Denominator = “-“ then
    Return “-“
    End If
    If CDbl(Numerator) =0 or CDbl(Denominator) = 0 then
    Return “-“
    End if
    If IsNothing(Numerator) or IsNothing(Denominator) then
    Return "-"
    End if
    Return Val( ( (CDbl(Numerator) / CDbl(Denominator) )*100 ) )
    Catch
    Return "-"
    End Try
    End Function
    I call the custom code in the cell with the following equation:
      =Code.SafeDivide(sum(Fields!TY_UNITS.Value)-sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value),sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value))
    I have the format for the cell set to 0.00%, but it’s not being followed.
    I want the result to be formatted as a Percentage, but instead I get values like: 
    -78.9473684210
    80
    300
    -100
    I have the format for the cell set to 0.00%, but it’s not being followed.
    How do I do use the custom code and format for a percentage with 2 decimals?

    Hi AngP,
    After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it. Based on my research, I find this issue is caused by the type of Units_VAR_Percentage cell is string, while the type of CDbl(Parameters!Var_Threshold.Value) is double, so they cannot be
    compared.
    To fix this issue, we can add a hidden column (Textbox91) next to the Units_VAR_Percentage column, and type =(sum(Fields!TY_UNITS.Value)-sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value)) /sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value) as the expression. Then use the expression below to control the
    BackgroundColor:
    =iif(iif(reportitems!Units_VAR_Percentage.Value=CStr(format(reportitems!Textbox91.Value,"0.00%")),reportitems!Textbox91.Value,0)>CDbl(Parameters!Var_Threshold.Value),"Yellow","PaleTurquoise")
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

  • Image aliasing when exporting print PDF at 300 ppi (bicubic downsampling)

    Hello,
    i am trying to describe a problem which persists since version CS3 of InDesign. It's about aliased edges in images in a certain angle; occuring when exporting the brochure as PDF file (at 300 ppi). The placed images are always at a higher quality than needed (for example 780 ppi effective). The aliasing is not there when opening the original image files in photoshop (viewing at 100%).
    The PDF export settings are:
    - Compression: Bicubic downsampling to300 ppi for images above 350 ppi (for color images, grayscale images and monochrome images)
    - Crop Image data to frames
    - Marks: Crop Marks and Page Information
    - Output: No Color Conversion
    - Advanced: Transparency Flattener: High Resolution
    - Compatibility: Acrobat 4 (PDF 1.3)
    - PDF /X-3:2002
    Below are two screenshots
    - The left one was the original image, downsampled to 216 mm in width using automatic bicubic downsampling
    - The right one is the result when exporting a InDesign Document with the same width to a PDF with the mentioned settings
    Downsampled in Photoshop CS6 to 216 mm width
    Exported from InDesign CS6 with mentioned settings
    I have no clue what happens here, but it looks like the internal downsampling of InDesign CS6 is not very good.
    When i write a PostScript file of the brochure and put it in Distiller (with the same PDF Preset as above), the image looks like the one made with Photoshop. So this problem has to lie somwhere deep in InDesign or it's settings.
    Anybody with similar experiences?

    Something about your test looks off. The export from ID and export from PS PDFs are both zoomed at 1200%, but the export from ID vrsion is 90% smaller.
    Yeah I noticed that I actually had the image in InDesign scaled @ 90%, so the effective ppi was around 650.  I get the same jagged results when I use anything other than a 300 or 600 effective ppi.  Whereas if I use a 650ppi image in Photoshop and export to PDF, it downsamples smoothly.
    Rob Day wrote:
    The diagonal lines in your test are 1 pixel so at 300ppi to an offset press at 150lpi, the lines would be less than a halftone dot so I'm pretty sure you would need a loupe to see any difference. Maybe with a stochastic screen there would be better resolution but still difficult to see. So if the printing is that good I would just export without down sampling. With disk space running at 15 cents a gigabyte there's not much to gain with a downsample.
    It becomes noticeable with some images more than others, but I'm printing a lot of images of buildings and drawings with sharp lines that converge to a point, or are distinguishable in the full size image but indistinguishable when downsampled.  This can introduce distracting patterns when they aren't downsampled smoothly, something like this:
    Unfortunately the printers near me aren't very good, so I'm having things printed online, and this particular printer (blurb.com - for a small job) won't accept large PDFs without compressed/downsampled images :/  I'm making 300dpi versions of the really crucial images for the time being, but I'm hoping there is a better solution!
    The other issue is exporting the PDF for use on the web, either as a download or on an online PDF viewer like issuu.com.  The two PDFs on the right side of my test look much better in these situations.  Is there any disadvantage to using Distiller to make my PDFs for this purpose using the Device Independent setting?  I don't have any special interactive elements. 

  • When I save a PNG file at 300 ppi, it opens at 299.999

    This is driving me nuts. When I save a photoshop file as a .png at 300 ppi, when I open it it is 299.999 ppi.
    I wouldn't mind for my personal use, but these are digital files I sell. Believe me, I will get emails about it.
    Even when I open the .png file and change the ppi to 300, if I open it again it's once again 299.999!
    I am saving files with a transparent background with compression no interlacing. I'm using save as, not save for web.
    Here's the interesting thing.
    1. This started happening when I got my new iMac with Lion and installed CS6. Did both at the same time.
    2. My assistant, this happens with my assistant who is on PC with Photoshop CS5.
    What's going on and how can I fix this?

    I did find this article.
    "Most other programs do store and use the correct scaled resolution value in PNG files. PNG stores resolution internally as pixels per meter, so when calculating back to pixels per inch, some programs may show excessive decimal digits, perhaps 299.999 ppi instead of 300 ppi (no big deal)."
    I don't know why this has started happening in CS6 though. Didn't happen in CS5. Hmm. Actually, I do have CS5 installed. Maybe I should try doing my pngs in it again.
    Just searched around the web. I guess this is a common occurance. I'll just have to put it in my support FAQS that this is normal and doesn't affect the image.

  • Photoshop CS6: Why is ACR set to 240 ppi by default, and not 300 ppi?

    Does anybody have any idea as to why ACR is set to 240 ppi by default? Isn't 300 ppi the optimum setting for printing purposes? Is there a good reason, or reasons, why Adobe chose 240 ppi as the default setting?
    I'd like to know if it is advisable to change ACR's settings from this default 240 ppi to 300 ppi. I know any perceived difference, when it comes to printing images, may be negligible, but why not, if it is just a matter of simply changing it to 300 ppi permanently?
    I am uneasy about changing this, however, until I find out a lot more about it, as I want the best quality, and if there are undesirable consequences by changing ACR to 300 ppi that I am not aware about, and, therefore, why Adobe have it set it to 240 ppi, then I'll leave it at the default setting.

    Hi,
    Setting this value to 240, 300 or whatever else will not change anything. The TIF or JPEG file generated from the RAW file will just have a metadata field containing this value (actually, there are 2 fields : XResolution and YResolution, usually set to the same value). The rest of the file will remain unchanged. Two files generated from the same RAW one at 240 dpi and the other at 300 dpi will only differ by that field.
    When you load the file in PS (or when ACR transmits a raw image to the PS bitmap engine along with its metadata), the dpi value found in the metadata will only affect the default values that will be used in the File | Print dialog, Position and Size section. By default, PS will compute the printed size of the document according to the indication given in the XResolution/YResolution field. If you change the desired dimension or if you "scale to fit", the dpi resolution will change.
    The dpi value specified in ACR or in any other software is only an indication. It never affects the image itself. Actually, this dpi value has no meaning until the image is "realized". A dpi value only makes sense when the pixel are transformed into ink dots in a printer or to display pixels on a screen. Until then, this value has no meaning.
    Moreover, in Lightroom (which makes printing much more easy than in PS), it is actually recommended to not specify any dpi value. That field should usually be left blank. You specify the print target dimensions and LR will automatically compute the right dpi value.

  • How do I format an external HD with Recovery Disk Assistant on?

    Hi,
    I have seen a couple of threads on this, but I'm still not "Compos Mentis" with how to format an external drive with the Recovery Disk Assistant on.
    I have a 320GB which has my recovery disk assistant on - "Don't ask!" - Anyway it goes without saying that I want it all back, but I'll be damned if I can get there. I have managed to view (after a lot of faffing) what I thought was the External Drive, but now realise that it's not...this is what I am now seeing - are these removable via partition (disk0s1 & Recovery HD) as I have been merrily trying to erase them in he belief that they were the external HD and as far as I can see nothing has changed...only my annoyance!
    Anyway in short, I need this
    A) view the external drive and
    B) Format it back to 320GB
    Can anyone spoon feed me a way out?
    Thanks

    I don't understand what you mean by, "how to format an external drive with the Recovery Disk Assistant on."
    You don't need to use the Recovery HD to format an external drive. Just use Disk Utility:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Security button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

  • Table with 300 columns

    While talking with a friend, he was telling me that sometimes he uses tables with 300 columns which will only be accessed once for information extraction. For me this is a bit strange because 300 columns looks like a lot of columns for me...
    Having tables with so many columns is a common practice in Data Warehousing? If yes, can you explain me on which situations this can happen and how often?
    Regards

    We have tables with cca 150 columns.
    You need to know that we are not talking about relational systems that are normalized. Its common practise when bilding data warehouse. Number of columns in your tables will depend on complexity and size of your warehouse, and number, size and complexity of your source systems.
    Point is that even now, when data warehouse is "finished", we still add/remove columns as warehouse changes as the source systems change.
