I want to export a photo with it's highest resolution p/in. What value should I use?

I have a photo that an author would like to publish in a book.  I sent it at a resolution of 300 p/in.  She would like it at the highest resolution possible.  How do I find or determine that value?  The photo was taken with a Nikon 7000.

The ppi setting is only a tag in the file metadata, it does not change the image in any way. It may be used by some printing applications to determine a default print size, but is generally ignored. The ppi box in the LR Export dialog will accept any number from 1 to 65,000, but what really determines resolution is the number of pixels in the image. If you are exporting all the original pixels from the camera less any lost to aesthetic or aspect ratio crops, that is the highest native resolution possible. Resolution can be artificially increased by using the Resize option in Export so that LR will create and add in new pixels - whether or not this causes visible artifacts is largely dependent on the amount of enlargement.
Since your author friend is probably also unaware of the irrelevance of the ppi tag, send her all your native pixels and set an impressively high number for the tag - like 65,000

  • I want to export my photos with the title and info attached

    I want to export my photos with the title and info attached but cannot seem to do it with this new os.

    Are you confusing Titles and Filenames by any chance?
    When you email you're sending a file. The email client sees the Filename. The title is in the Exif metadata of the file and the email app doesn't see this - neither will the Finder or filebrowser.
    You can export (as above) and opt to use the Title as Filename - it's there at the Filename section.

        I'm sorry to learn that you have endured the audio issues outlined in your post for almost 2 years SusanLM1! This is certainly not normal! Let's get to the bottom of this issue, first please confirm your phone model; your mention that you have the iPhone 5 but your post is on the iPhone 5S forum. Also, share the iOS version currently installed on your phone. What is your ZIP code? Does this happen mainly while you make/receive calls from a particular location (home, office, etc)?

  • I have been filling up my internal memory on my laptop after years of video editing. I now want to export all this footage to an external hard drive. What is the proper way to do this.

    I have been filling up my internal memory on my laptop after years of video editing. I now want to export all this footage to an external hard drive. What is the proper way to do this.

    Are the videos being stored in iMovie or another application? Have you exported/shared the video? If the video is in iMovie what version of iMovie are you using? Give as much info as possible, and you may also want to post the question in the iLife section of this forum since more people with video skills will be reading the iLife/iMovie threads.

  • I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

    I am trying to print a color photo on my MacBook Pro from iPhoto (not using Photoshop) using Epson 2200 printer, and everything I do in the Color Matching and Print Settings results in a photo with a pink cast to it. What am I doing wrong?

    Have you checked the ink cartridges and made sure the nozzles are clear? Are you able to print from outside of iPhoto with the correct color?
    Try the following: make temporary copy of the library and do the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • I want to format my hard drive so i can have files bigger than 4GB what format should I use?

    I have a new hard drive that I want to format so it will work with both mac and PC (windows) but I have files that are bigger than 4GB, what format should I use?
    It needs to work with both PC and mac because I need to go between two computers etc

    If both of these computers are connect to the same router, both are in your home or place of work (Both are in the same location), it is very easy to Network them so you don't have to use DropBox or the external drive to share files between them.

  • What program should i use to archive my photos ?

    what program should i use to archive my photos ? i have tried aperture and the mage browsing program that comes with canon, but i just cant find the right program to be fast and efficent ! any suggestions ?

    " work for a news paper so i have a large amount of photos coming and going in my system, so i need a program that is faster and more efficient that aperture"
    I believe you are looking for a lightweight image browser/viewer that supports basic editing. I highly recommend Lyn and believe it is the exact program for your purposes. It is $20, but you are offered a free 30$ trial.

  • I am new with webservices. what platform should i use? wasp, glue, jwsdp .

    hello i just study web services. i am very new of this. there
    are many soap-based web services platform such as axis,
    glue, wasp ,jwsdp etc. i don't know much about these
    platform. what platform should i use in my project ? i use
    java in my project. anyone have any recommend for me?
    every recommend is important for me. thank you

    If you're not currently involved with a web service project that is using a particular server (e.g., WebSphere, WebLogic, etc.), I suggest starting with Axis. Apache software tends to be adopted by other vendors as a basis for their products. Also, the Axis mailing lists are very active and you're more likely to get your questions answered quickly. Once you're comfortable with Axis, it's probably worthwhile to download the evaluation version of WebSphere or WebLogic to learn how to deploy web services on a commercial platform.
    Good luck,

  • Exporting still photos with Ken Burns from iMovie to Keynote

    I am new to the Mac and have no experience of iMovie. I am putting together a slide lecture that uses photos and graphics to promote a coffee-table book on conservation issues. The presentation will use manual advance and will be shown to public audiences on large screens. The quality of the projected image is very important so I will be using a high quality Canon projector with a resolution of 1400x1050.
    Some images are of landscapes and I want to use the Ken Burns effect that is available in iPhoto and iMovie but, for some unknown reason, not in Keynote. I posted this first with the Keynote Discussion Forum and was advised to move the photos from iPhoto to iMovie, apply the Ken Burns effect in iMovie, and then export to Keynote via Quicktime. My question is, if I do this, will my Ken Burns landscapes retain the same size and quality of projected image as the rest of my Keynote presentation? My impression is that using this process I may lose quality, but I hope I'm wrong. Please advise.

    Some background: Importing photos with the Ken Burns checkbox ON causes iMovie to render a video clip from the photo. That's an entirely different process than importing the photo as a "still" image. Unfortunately, Ken Burns and several other rendering routines are vulnerable to factors that sometimes cause them to fail. The disk format can cause failure, third-party software, inadequate video cards and the like. The factors often have nothing to do with iMovie itself.
    The same problems can occur when rendering other kinds of clips too, such as themes and special effects. (Ken Burn gets the bad rep because it's where the problems usually occur for users.)
    Some of the items you listed in your Library/QuickTime folder are third-party products. There may be others too in the other folders mentioned in the link I posted earlier, so be sure to look in those too. And in iMovie plug-in folders.
    Sometimes necessary items are missing that should exist. One I've seen mentioned here occasionally is the QuartzComposer.component, which should reside in your System/Library/QuickTime folder. If it's not there that might cause the problems you see.
    Installing/reinstalling the QuickTime 7.1.6 might help. I've seen reports of problems going away after that update. Repeating the update won't hurt.
    Have you tried creating a new user account and running iMovie as that user? If iMovie runs okay as that user that suggests a software conflict when you are the user. Unfortunately, if the software is installed in places where it applies to all users it will cause problems for the new user too.
    I'd keep trying to find some software component causing trouble for QuickTime/iMovie. It's clear some third-party components have been installed; there might be others. Perhaps stuff related to AVI?

  • Export selected photos with comments

    How does one export selected photos (or an album) in such a way that when someone else imports them (on a different computer), the comments are preserved?
    That is, the recipient gets to see in their iPhoto the comments that the originator added in their iPhoto.
    I've done some searching in this forum and it kind of looks like there is no way using iPhoto, and that probably the best bet is to use iPhoto Library Manager. Is that right, or have I missed something?
    (As an aside to my main question: I think I recall an older version of iPhoto having an option to export selected photos in what was essentially an iPhoto Library structure (not the entire library, just a library of the selected photos), and this structure could be copied to another computer and then imported into the other iPhoto. But I haven't found any such option in iPhoto 08. If I'm correct I'm puzzled, since it seems like a step backwards.)
    Thanks in advance!

    Don:
    Use the File->Export->File Export menu option with the options shown below:
    You can change the size and quality level as needed. The description as well as the keywords and titles will be included.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
