How to check size of an image

I'm often sent what I'm told by professionals are "high res." , "print ready" images- which I would assume are at least 300 dpi CMYK images, but when I check size (image>image size> PS CS6  dialog box tells me these are 72 dpi images. I'm fairly certain the error lies with me rather than with the professional photographersdesigners that send the images.
I'm currently working with an image that says its 1.9M (when I hit info)
Then when I pull the .jpg into PS CS6 and go image>Image size> I see this dialogue box:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ww3ekp2tfiinxhr/Screenshot%202013-12-04%2009.51.39.png
This happens to me over and over and I have no idea if these are print ready 300 dpi images or not as the size indicates it should be fine by the 72 pix./inch on this dialogue box makes me nervous.
Also, the images always are in RGB, rather than CMYK
Help!

I generally get he images from drop box, email or given to me on a thumb drive. I'm not really worried about the RGB facor as anything that comes via web or a camera shoots in RGB, just added that tidbit in case it factored into the answer.
I do understand that dpi is direclty related to image size (here is a great article that was super helpful to my understanding this, just in case anyone else is looking)
http://www.istockphoto.com/article_view.php?ID=199
My, newly revised, understanding is that I'll always have to uncheck resample image, constrain w and h and change to 300 dpi and that will tell me the largest file size that I can have at that resolution.

  • How to check the DPI for images on pages

    hi,
            I want to check the DPI for images programatically, is there any function available in acrobat SDK,
            If not what other option we have to check the DPI for images programatically.
    Thank you,

    You don't mention which parts of the SDK, but you can use the Preflight feature of Acrobat via either JavaScript or C/C++ (plugin) to generate a report of images in a document and their information (including dpi).
    You can also write a plugin to iterate over each image individually and get its properties.

  • How to check width of loaded image

    Hi my script loads an image like this:
            image = new Sprite();
            imageLoader = new Loader;
            imageLoader.load(new URLRequest(imageList.image[1].imgURL));
            image.addChildAt(imageLoader, 0);
    how can i check the width of loaded image? trace(image.width) gives 0...

    You need to wait until the image is loaded before you can try to ffind its width.  To do that you need to use the contentLoaderInfo property of the Loader class
    imageLoader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, manageImage);
    The manageImage event handler function is where you can check things since it is triggered after the object is loaded.

  • How to check image size and 500PX upload action please!

    Hi,
    Two questions please.
    1. How do you check the overall size of an image in Lightroom 4 before exporting.  In Photoshop it is image/size so what is it in Lightroom please?
    2. I have Canon raw files and tiffs and want to upload to 500PX and other web site galleries in one action.  Is it possible?  How do you set up an action to convert an image, say a tiff, to a certain size and then save as a jpeg and upload to 500pX using the plugin all in one action?  At the moment I am saving the tiff as a jpeg to a correct size using a pre set, but then exporting to another folder ready to either manually upload or re-import to Lightroom as a jpeg then upload. Surely there is a quicker way than this?

    1. The size is visible in the metadata panel, set the dropdown to EXIF. In addition, in the Grid, with Ctrl-J, you can set the options so that you will see the cropped size in the rectangle surrounding the photo.
    2. You cannot, in one action, upload to multiple galleries. Each upload is its own action. I don't know if there is a plug-in to let you upload from LR to 500px in one action; clearly there are plug-ins for Flickr and Smugmug and several others. There should be no need to re-import. Normally, the plug-ins I mentioned will take a TIFF, resize it according to your directions, convert to JPG and upload.

  • HELP !!! How to check the size of an object in Photoshop ?

    Hello,
    I'm using Photoshop CS 3 to design a website. I used several shapes such as rectangle, line or ellipse of different size. Probably it is a stupid question but I don't know how to check the size of an existing rectangle. I tried free transform tool that selects my rectangle but doesn't show its size. Then I made a selection with rectangular marquee tool but I see nowhere the size of the selected area.
    If you know the name of such a tool please help me !
    Have a nice day !

    Web images are all pixels. View at 100% at pixel view. that is your exact size

  • How to stop MG3520 from dropping image when fit to page is checked

    How can I stop MG3520 from cropping image when fit to page is checked?

    Hi Keithlad,
    You will want to make sure that the paper size selected in the printer driver is the same size as the paper that you have loaded in the printer to ensure that the image prints correctly.   When the paper size selected in the printer driver is smaller than the actual page size, the page image will be reduced.  When the paper size selected is larger, the page image will be enlarged.

  • How do I make selective screenshot images in cells the same size?

    I am putting together a spreadsheet to list the purchasing options for our company from some of the Mac mini models but have a problem with image sizes in spreadsheet cells.
    First I took screenshots of each of the price and spec panels of the self-configured options I was interested in recommending using CmdCtrl+Shift4 to save the screenshot to the clipboard. Next, I highlighted the cell into which the image was destined to go and clicked Cmd+V and the image appeared in the cell (as an image fill for background colour). I repeated this process for six different Mac minis, being careful to start and finish the crosshairs in exactly the same place for each option. Each of these images had been lifted from a separate Tab in Safari 4.0.5 and appeared to be identically sized.
    The problem is, when placed in the spreadsheet cell grid, each image was either higher or lower than the one next to it, yet all cells were the exact same size. Some images appeared to be centred in the cell, others appeared to be top aligned.
    Can anyone help me to understand why this happens, and to give a suggestion on how to avoid it in the future?
    TIA

    OK, my mistake! The images were not the same size because the specs were different for each one, meaning that the info boxes were of different heights. When I copied them again, using the coordinates to ensure the screenshots were exactly the same size this time (rather than adding on a fixed width to the outside of the boxes) the problem was solved.
    Sometimes it's the user not the tools that has the problem!
    Having said that, it would be useful if the images were not background fills, but images that you could highlight because that would show quite quickly the size of each one - and allow you to add a background colour to a column to indicate a category type.
    Thanks for your help!

  • How can you find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas

    This is probably a really really simple question but I can't for the life of me find how I can find out an individual image size from multiple images on a canvas. eg I have 3 photos i want to arrange 1 large and the other two next to it half the size. How can I edit individual image size on the canvas as when I select the image on a sperate layer I want to resize it just resizes the entire canvas and not the individual image
    Thanks

    I want to know they exact dimensions though. You can get them by dragging to the 0,0 corner and then reading off of the ruler scale on the sides but its fiddily as you have to zoom right in and work it out. I know in photoshop there is a ruler but is there any other way in Elements?

  • How do I copy and paste images without a reduction in size?

    I am working on a project where I want to include several jpeg images that are saved on my computer onto a new single 8.5x11 page in Photoshop. Even though the percentages are the same on both the images and the Photoshop page, when I copy and paste the images onto the page, the size of the images are greatly reduced (from 5" to 1".)  I would greatly appreciate instruction on how to copy images and paste them on to a Photoshop page without the reduction in image size. I have accomplished this task previously and I had no problem. Is there a setting that I am unaware of that I need to change in order to proceed with the project as planned? Thank you for your time.

    You are a genius! That's it. Thank you so much for taking the time to help...

    n a file. but i want to control the size of this
    image without saving this image in a file? IS it
    possible ? Is there anybody can help me?This has nothing to do with JDBC; you can only store and retrieve the image you have and there's no image manipulation functions in JDBC (nor should there be).
    I can see 2 options:
    1) serve the image file as is, but in the jsp that writes the html that contains the "<img>" tag that gets it, use the "height" and/or the "width" to scale the suppied image to presentation size you want.
    2) find some image manipulation code that will convert the image into the size you want
    Option 1 will work well if the problem you have is merely refining the image size for presentation. Option 2 is your only coice if it's the image files size itself you really want to change, not just it's appearance on a page.
