At what resolution should I scan?
Set the scan resolution at double what your final image’s resolution will be.
Image type | final resolution | scan resolution |
---|---|---|
web image | 72 | 150 |
image for print | 300 | 600 |
Small images: If you are going to be enlarging a small image the higher your
resolution the better the enlarged image will look. Experiment to get the best
results!
