Gyno-jiz Sep 18, 2009 12:01 AM (in response to Shan-Dysigns)Yes. In Photoshop, document size is still relevant. Working documents must still have a ppi, so they must also have a size. I'm sure it could read back to you pixels in the size area too, but that would mean obfuscating the document size. And what would be the pt. of that?

Shan-Dysigns Sep 18, 2009 10:12 AM (in response to Gyno-jiz)In English please. You missed the whole point of my question. The main question is why is this happening in CS4 and not CS3?

The unit in image size (when the rulers are set to pixels) will be pulled from your system setting. Probably you've set them to metric somehow. Someone with Windows expertise might be able to point you in that direction.

May help, may not help.

Shan-Dysigns Sep 18, 2009 3:04 PM (in response to Shan-Dysigns)Ok... I love it when I answer my own question, then feel stupid for asking it in the first place. Somehow, in Preferences > Units & Rulers > under the Units heading, the drop down for Rulers was set to pixels. Because of that, when I viewed the image size > document size, the unit was always reading cm. When I changed the drop down for Rulers to inches, the document size reads inches. Maybe that's the way PS CS3 was and I had the correct setting in PS CS3. It's still odd to me that a setting of pixels in the drop down for Rulers would give a unit of cm in document size. Thanks to all who took time on this...
