Is there a limit to the size of a file I can open in PS6 on XP or MacOS10 (take your pick)?
I have 16 21"x15" pencil drawings that I plan to take to Kinkos to be scanned onto a CD. They charge $20 per scan, but their scanner has a 3’x10′ scanning bed. So I can tape the drawings together and pay for one scan. 200-300dpi will be a high enough res. I need sharp images because I have to place the drawings in Illustrator to trace. But I’m concerned that the file size will be off the charts.
I plan to open the file in PS6 to divided it up into the individual drawings. But I wonder if I will have trouble opening a file that big.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
