Hi folks, A basic question but I am doing something wrong.
I am trying to help my daughter develop a catalogue of clothing, with photos, in a Word document small enough to email to clients. She has 50 professionally taken photos each of 2.2 MB approx 25 cm X 40 cm. We want them down to approx 2 cm wide in proportion but to keep the best quality for viewing the detail. I am using Photoshop Elements 3. What is the best way to reduce them? Scaling or by pixel count? How many pixels per sq inch is best for this. It is not being printed just emailed but the client may print it out their end. Our first try ended up with a 5 page document of 45+ MB! This slowed everything down and is useless for emailing but the quality is great. We now have it down to 3.5 MB but this is still big and some photos are losing quality? I have read the Photoshop guide but the setting are still not right. Getting the 2 cm width is not easy! Is a PDF file the way to go? Any advice would be gratefully received. Lloyd
