Is It Really Better to Resize Image and Canvas Before Printing???????
Is it better to resize the image and canvas before printing? It may sound like a dumb question but it seems to me, that if I resize the image and canvas in Photoshop: 1) If I print the photo on my own printer, the printer’s software will essentially be resampling the photo data anyway (even if I correctly resize image and canvas to match printer resolution and photo paper size), or 2) If I take the photo to a commercial printer, that printer’s software will resample the photo anyway AND the person processing the photo will resample it (adjusting brightness, color, etc.). It would seem to me that one would be better off just letting the printer software resize the image and canvas of the photo (and therefore skip at least one unnecessary resampling which would needlessly decrease the quality of the photo). Thanks for any opinions either way.
