HI everybody.
I´ve noticed that Photoshop and Illustrator treat images in a very different way.
If I open a document in Photoshop with a resolution of 200 ppi and insert a photo, it usually shrinks (according to the resolution I´m using), BUT it doesn´t happen in Illustrator.
If I open the photo and copy-paste to the document, it remains the original size, but the file size increases a lot. If the .ai document is 600, when I paste a 800 kb photo and save the document it increases up to 17 Mb.
Why does it happen?
What happens with the photos in the document when printed… will they be clear and sharp, or will they be noisy? Which one is better to design large format documents containing photos?
Thanx a lot for your help.
