Matt Laur Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 <p>Are you doing the printing yourself, or sending them to someone else (like a professional lab?). Are you talking about small prints, or large ones? <em>How</em> large?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allan_m Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 <p>Sending them to Millers lab, and I am talking about 8x10 and the bigger 11x14</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_chan4 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 <p>Best to ask the lab for their preference. If they cannot provide any, try sRGB 300dpi jpeg max quality, don't re-save.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plasma181 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 <p>I generally put my pictures in the form of high quality JPGs and take them to the pharmacy for printing. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
976photo Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 <p>JPEG is perfectly fine for printing, provided the resolution is set properly for the size print you want to make and provided you're working with a 1st or 2nd generation file. The more you resave the more quality you will lose, but if it's the original file from the camera then it's fine, assuming the resolution is high enough for the print you want to make.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
