- I have a scanned photo that's 3.7M. I want to use it in Photoshop on my
- Amiga emulted MAC (I use Shapeshifter).
-
- The original is around 3x5. The final size I want in Photoshop is 1.5x2.5.
-
- I'm using IMFX 1.52.
-
- I cropped the photo,then halfed it,then saved as jpeg (90% compression).
- Is this the correct way?
-
- Previously I had jpegged first, then cropped and halfed it.Then I was
- going to save it again, but then I would have had to turn the JPEG
- compression to =0 if I selected 'save as jpeg', or I would have to use
- 'save as ilbm' which seemed erroneous to me.
-
- The former method resulted in a 78K file which is great!
- The latter method,which I don't think is correct resulted in a 344k file.
-
- Any help is appreciated.
-
- Regards.
