I opened a picture in Photoshop. I want to change the resolution of that picture to 300 dpi. I then want to place the 300 dpi photo into InDesign so that it IS NOT pixilated. Can someone please explain to me how to change the resolution of a photo in photoshop to 300 dpi, and then how to import (or paste) that 300 dpi photo in InDesign so it is not pixilated.
-thanks.
Also how to save it
Photoshop/InDesign Question?auto protect
First off, you want to open it in photoshop. Then, go to image/image size. Next, change the dpi to 300. 250 is ok, but 300 or more is best. 72 res is very bad for printing. If the image is originally 72 and you change it to 300, then it is going to be smaller. If you blow it up from there it is going to look pixelated still. You want to next save it as a .tiff because tiffs seem to hold the most information and are a little bit bigger files than jpgs, but they work just as good. either one will work. If it says something about layers when saving, you need to cancel saving and flatten your layers and then save it. It just makes it a smaller file when you flatten them. Next you need to go into indesign and go File/place or ctrl+D. Find the file that you just saved and double click on it. then you can click anywhere in the document and place it where you want it. Remember, The Black arrow tool controls the bounding box in InDesign. The White arrow tool controls the picture in the bounding box.
