How does image quality and resolution affect what will be printed?
• We scan photographs at a resolution of 300 dots per inch which gives very good print quality. Please note if you are uploading your photo online we can only accept image files up to 5 megabytes in size. Most images will give excellent printed results with much smaller file sizes. When using image handling software to save in JPEG format, you will normally find a setting for the quality or ‘compression’. Each time an image is amended then saved in this format, some quality is lost. Please make sure you use a high quality (low compression) setting, otherwise the reproduction quality of your item may be affected. • The following points may also affect your image on the finished goods: • Colour depth of your computer. This should be the highest possible setting to get the best possible image quality. A setting of at least 16-bit colour depth is recommended. Most digital cameras and modern computers work at 24-bit colour depth or higher. • Image dimensions & resolution.We print at 300dpi
