@ thefixer; Ok, on the point of Poser only rendering at 75 ppi I stand corrected.... I do however end up with 300ppi images at say 8x8 inches without resizing UP in Photoshop. I checked something I did the other day. In Poser the render dimensions I put in were' 2400x2488' at '300dpi' I exported that as a tiff. When opened in Photoshop the document dimensions read at 33.33x34 INCHES and yes, at 72ppi. However it's 32 megs in size ! To fit on my monitor I have to zoom out to 32%. I can zoom in to 300% where the figures entire face fills the screen to work on small details........... a bit jaggy at the edges but still very clear image. What I can do then is go to the resize assistant under the Help menu and resize that down to 7.5x7.6 inches at 300ppi and move the quality slider so the 17213k it indicates for the original image remains the same. In PShop the new resized doc dimensions now read as 7.5x7.6 at 303ppi. That is what I would send to someone requesting an image 300ppi . I can print that out on A4 and it looks great. Really I dont have to do that resize stuff at all .... I can just print it out from the 33x34 inch 72 ppi ....and what I will get when I set my printer to do it at 300ppi is a very good quality 7.5 inch print. Well , all I'm saying from my understanding of resolutions an' stuff is that this is my method of dealing with it, works for me ..... everyone please form an orderly queue to kick it to pieces now ; D http://graphicssoft.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/articles.php%3Faction=expand%2C5812 "The quick way is to take the largest pixel value on the image (in this case, 2272) and divide it by the longest print side of the page size you're going to print it on. So if you were printing an 8" x 10", you'd divide 2272 by 10 and get 227 PPI. No quality problems with that PPI! At 11" x 14" you'd have 162 PPI. Still ok there, and at 16" x 20" you'd be at 113 PPI. This is pushing the barrier of acceptable quality, but I think it would still look decent - especially since the larger the image the further away people tend to view it. So what's the painful way of calculating PPI? If you're a math person, you won't find this painful, but I'm not, so I did find it moderately painful. The formula for the data above would look like this: (2272 x 1704) / (8.5 x 11) = x. In this instance, we'd get 41,406 and change. We'd then take the square root of that number and get a PPI value of 203. This is the most accurate method of calculating PPI (the quick method above gave us 227 PPI), but it's more involved. If your software gives you the PPI value, all the better, but if it doesn't you can safely use the quick method to crank out a PPI value before you waste valuable ink and paper."
