Resizing in Photoshop can help you print your images in standard photo sizes, resize and preserve the high
quality of digital photos, and enlarge small images to a poster size.
To resize your image to a preset size, follow the steps below:
1. In the main menu, go to File > New.
2. In the New dialog box, click on the Preset dropdown menu. You will see several preset sizes, such as
2x3, 4x6 and 5x7 with the preset resolution of 300 ppi.
3. Choose the size that you wish and click OK.
All the preset sizes are in portrait orientation. If you wish to resize an image with the landscape orientation,
you need to create your own preset. To create your own size, do the following:
1. Type in the values for Width and Height, for example 7x5.
2. Type in your desired resolution (150 ppi for high quality prints, and 72 ppi is good for web images).
3. Click the Save Preset button
Resizing digital photos
Digital photos usually have large dimensions but low resolution, 72 ppi, which effects their quality when their
size is decreased or increased. When printed, the photos with the changed size will look pixilated. To resize the
digital photos without loosing the quality, follow these steps:
1. Open the digital photo you wish to resize.
2. In the main menu, go to View > Rulers. You will see the dimension of your photo
3. In the main menu, go to Image > Image Size.
4. In the Image Size dialog box, check the Resample Image box off (Figure 19). Type in your desired
resolution (anything between 150 and 300 ppi). The photo is now 3.208 x 3.083 inches.
Enlarging
If you want to make your digital photo into a poster size image, you can do it in the Image Size dialog box.
However, just increasing the dimensions will make the image appear blurry and pixilated. To enlarge the image
without loosing the quality, follow these steps:
1. Open the digital image you wish to enlarge.
2. In the main menu, go to Image > Image Size.
3. In the Image Size dialog box, make sure the Resample Image box is checked off and choose Bicubic
Smoother from the dropdown box
4. Change the Document Size measurements to Percent. Type in 110; this will in crease the size of the
image by 10 percent.
