You may have sent 72dpi images meant for monitor viewing and posting to websites INSTEAD of sending jpegs at a dpi of 240-300 needed for print production?


Why on Earth would you send 72PPI files for monitor viewing?

It was my first time doing a photo book. It was for print and I didn't know better! Once again, I learned from our community. I'm not sure that answered your question. Much thanks, Jennifer

My point is that there is NO reason to use 72PPI for monitor viewing as the pixel pitch is irrelevant.

Great - glad that was easily repaired. My point is that there is NO reason to EVER use that silly 72PPI thing for monitor use. Monitors have no idea what pixel pitch means. All that matters is pixel dimensions. a 1000x1500 pixel image will display at the same size whether is is 72ppi, 267ppi, 344ppi, etc.

So knowing that, you will never make that error again.

Hi Awesome Hogs,

I recently volunteered to shoot a 25th anniversary party as a favor, friend, and attendee. No big formal gig. A pig roast. I shot my Nikon 750 and holy trinity set of lenses. The photos look great in camera and on my MacBook Pro. Sharp on zoom. I've uploaded the gallery to both AdoramaPix and Costco photo center to create a book, only to yield results that look nothing like I see on screen. Adorama says my resolution isn't adequate and Costco just looks awful. Some, but not all, are cropped. I shot in RAW and am exporting from Lightroom in Jpeg. Please help! I did this as a gift and I'm wondering if I can deliver! Many thanks for any advice you can offer!
