Ive tried several things to get a good print size from Bryce. The most effective was to render at 4000x3000 (the max). then i bring it into Photoshop and up the dpi to 300, which is what most professional printing guys ask for. 150 dpi will work, but you can really see the diff. The largest print with that process at 300 dpi was about 13x10, at 150 it was 20x13, I want bigger!!!! Does anyone know how to get a larger print?

Try rendering to disk. That way you can set the image size and DPI.Of course rendering time increases.

I have a complete tutorial on printing in Bryce..including the actual calculations needed and if you're like me and just want the work done for you, there is an online calculator that does the calculation for you. :P hope that helps a bit BT

Resolution does not matter. Pixel count does. Traditional technologies like 4 color and web offset reproduction use Line Screens which can conflict with the geometry of the pixels. The 300 DPI standard comes the fact that few publications are printed at a higher resolution than 150 Lines per inch. Actually, a lot of your high end service bureaus use a form of printing software not unlike an inkjet, just more accurate and finer (smaller dots). I've done cactus prints at 4 foot for the short dimension, and the file they asked for was and RGB eps @ 1 megabyte per square inch! I know, thats what I said, but the prints turned out very well. Try calling someone a level higher than Kinkos and asking about large format printing- Iris, Cactus, Indigo. Also, check the back of Wired magazine for ads, I think I saw one or two back there. wow, I learned something at work! Mitch
