hi everyone,
i have one of those large format plotters that can print up to A1 size sheets. last week a friend of mine asked me to plot for her several an image file on a large poster size – A1 in height and 2 meters in length.
the original picture is in tiff format and was made at a resolution of 400 dpi.
when i tried to plot it in the required poster size the resulting image size just caused my computer to hang. it was something in the size of
1.2 GB!!! is that correct? this was the file size that i see in the
photoshop information tab.
i have ample disk drive space for the scratch disk but my computer just hangs evertime i try to enlarge it to the needed size…
what am i doing wrong?
or how do those advertisers print those large canvass ads? thanks in advance…
