Thank you both of you for the answer. So if I understand well, to have the printed dimensions I want, it is not necessary to resize the image or play with the scale tool. All the more so as I get a quality loss by doing so, right ? But what I can do is do some calculation with the method below.
>When editing images for print, step one is to decide what the size in >inches or cm the printed image will be, and the resolution needed in >pixels per inch or cm. Multiply the physical size of the finished >printed image by the desired resolution, to find the height and width >in >/pixels/ of the image file you need to create. Get the correct amount of pixels height and width. After checking the printed dimension in Image --> Properties, I can eventually adjust these parameters with the scale tool. Tell me if I am right, with this method, on the screen, at 100%, I will not have the correct size ? Because it is only an information for printing ? In my case, when I do like that, the size dimension on the screen doesn't change at all, but the values in "Image --> Properties" do. I tried to figure out how I could get the same result by only changing the ppi. Is there a calculation that allows to get the same result that with the first method ? thank you again -- qsdqsd (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
