    What file format in PSE6 can I use for saving a newspaper article that will be legible and not large?

    emoglotz Community Member

      I have scanned a newspaper article into Photoshop Elements 6 and would like to e-mail it to someone.  I have tried the following ways to save the file, but none work the way I would like:

       

      Save As jpg at lowest quality is too large to view on the monitor.

       

      Save As pdf results in a file that is too large to e-mail (22 MB).

       

      Save for Web at a size that is about 500 pixels longest dimension ( approx. 70kb file suitable for e-mail) results in a file with text that can not be read (resolution too low, I guess).

       

      Is there a better way?

       

      Thanks for your help.
