Hi,
I am a bit confused with changing the resolution in the image size dialogue box. If I have an image that is currently at 72 ppi and I want to change the resolution to 300 ppi, do I uncheck or check "resample image"? I have been told that by unchecking resample image, the pixel dimensions don’t change and this is the "proper" way of changing resolution.
However when I uncheck resample width, and specify 300 ppi, the height of the image decreases. So when I place the image in Illustrator it is a lot smaller than the original size, if I want to scale it. would that effect the resolution?
Previously I have been chaning the resolution from 72 ppi to 300 but checking "resample image" so the pixel dimensions change.
I just wanted some clarification on which one is the proper method to use when I will ultimately go and print my Illustrator file.
Thanks
