Hello there…
Could reducing the scale of a high res image for a printed doc without resampling the image cause it to appear dark?
I reduced some photos to around 20% scale in Indesign CS. They appeared dark in our printed newsletter. I just want to check that this wasn’t as a result of scaling down the image so much without resampling. The final artwork was supplied to the printer as a press-res PDF.
Thanks for any scaling / downsampling advice.
Are there any arguments for downsampling a reduced image, apart from making your file size smaller and speedier to work with?
Kind regards
