I have an image that is 15000 x 10000 pixels, 529cm x 374cm. It has been created at 72 pixels/inch.
I want to print it out at 100cm x 70cm at 300pixels/inch.
I am a little confused, can the larger 72ppi document be 'shrunk' to accomodate for the 300ppi print requirement?
Thanks.
You saying you wan to do two things here. You have an image document has 15000 x 10000 pixels which is a 3:2 aspect ratio
Your writing
1.) You want a 10:7 aspect ratio print so you need to resize you image to that aspect ratio by cropping it or distorting it with something like content aware resize.
2.) You want the print size to 100cm x 70cm at a resolution of 300 pixels per inch 100cm = 39.37" x 70cm = 27.55" x 300dpi = 11811px x 8265px You do the with Image Size once yoh have your image the correct aspect ratio.
You can do both at once with the crop tool if you choose cropping as the way to change you image aspect ratio. Corpping changes the images composition some.
