However, when you crop an image, you always crop away square or rectangular sections. It is kind of like taking the hole out of a doughnut, keeping the hole, and throwing away the rest. Whenever you crop an image, you essentially cut away the outer edges of the images. The more PPI you have, the clearer the image is going to be when you print it. This is to obtain the best picture quality possible. When resizing for print, you may want to have a higher PPI than you would with images that are going to be used only for the web. This is because of the change in the pixel dimensions. A lot of people find that when they resize and resample, the resized image turns out blurry or distorted. If you resize and resample, you are changing both the image and pixel dimensions. When you resize without resampling, you are changing the image's dimensions, but you are not changing the pixel dimensions.
Whenever you resample, the image quality degrades a bit. You take away from it when you resample an image you have downsized, and you have added to it when you rescale an image you have enlarged. Resampling involves changing the image's data. Otherwise, your image might be distorted from stretching or shrinking.įor better results when you resize your image, uncheck the Resample box.
To maintain the current height-to-width ratio, make sure that the Constrain Proportions box is checked. Make sure the Scale Styles box is checked for the correct proportions when you resize. Remember, the higher the pixels, the better the resolution. Here is where you determine how many PPI you want. For this article, we are going to leave the measurements as they are.īelow the document size width and height, you will see Resolution. We can change the pixel measurement to percent, or the document size measurement to picas, columns, centimeters, millimeters, percent, or points. The next section shows the document size in inches. As you can see, the Pixel Dimensions section at the top shows the current image size in pixels.
