Hi Marnie,
Any file you print should be interpolated or "upsized" to deliver best
results with a given printer at a given dimension. My Epson 2200 likes
360 dpi, so to print 11 x 17, I upsize the RAW to the maximum value in
the CS converter, which is about 72 megabytes in 8 bit. This yields an
approximate 11 x 17 at 360 dpi.

That would be true if we were judging jpeg results vs. RAW results.
What Cotty disputed was Adobe's assertion that the RAW converter
provides better upsizing than does PhotoShop interpolation.
Evaluation of an interpolation is probably best done on the screen. I
don't think there's much dispute regarding the difference between
jpeg results and RAW results. It's a matter of range and contrast
control. It's obvious in some cases and indistinguishable in others.

Okay, I am clueless. Why would one upsize a RAW during conversion?
They are already big files. I am missing something...
Marnie aka Doe And, uh, by upsizing do you mean making larger?
extra resolution to make better large prints.
