The final print size was around 14 x 10 inches, which is what the print size in Photoshop said. Man, this is all pretty confusing stuff. I'm not sure of the printing process the place uses, but he did mention the word "press", and it is a really high quality image and paper. The actual image that you look at on screen is flawless in terms of pixelization, it's all in the print. Unfortunately, it sounds as if I'm going to have a hard (or long) time getting the image the quality I want it. Oh yeah, how do I partially render an image, stop it, save, and then continue rendering it later? I wasn't aware you could do that in Vue. Let me ask another question. Say I open my file in Vue, and go to the rendering options menu. Then I choose the size, and I choose A4, and then I choose the highest pixels x pixles listed under the size, which is 1600x1131, will this produce a good enough image to print? By good enough, I mean I want very, very little obvious pixels poking out. I'll ring the printers tomorrow and ask 'em what dpi they're printing at, and I'll let you know. Dang, I thought this was gonna be easy!! Thanks a heap for the info, guys.
