Working with publication companies in the past. The problem could be with the page layout software displaying a low res file for viewing, but using a high res file for printing. You could attempt printing first. The files should at least have a 200 or 300 DPI (Dots Per Inch) depending on the press setup such a LPI (Lines Per Inch) multiplied by 2.25 for the final DPI. A 4:3 aspect ratio can be interpreted as 9.5x6.3" with a jpeg file size around 3.75kb.

What you sent may have been fine.
My phone has an option to reduce the size or send original when I send from it.
As do many desktop email clients. Definitely check your outgoing email setting for that.
It is very possible that a reduced size image looks "fine" to the person receiving the email, even if the actual file is too small for the service it is uploaded to.
If sending multiple images in one email, creating a zip archive can eliminate the possibility of the email client changing file size.
A service like WeTransfer (as someone already mentioned) or DropBox is also a better solution for sending large volumes of files and/or large size files.
So great to hear from you again Gene.... So I understand, In LR I will crop at 4:3 aspect ratio... Enter custom= type in 2000 x 1500 as the 4:3 aspect? Then export, resize to fit/ dimensions/ 2000x1500/ 300 res.
Walla Just like that my problem is solved... You are the best Gene....

I have my suspicions about how he used his MLS program.. He said the images looked sharp from the e-mail.. but once he put it into the MLS program he said it was low res..
Forgot to ask. Did he use his Smartphone or a desktop computer to update the MLS?
