You know of any printer that still prints a 72DPI??? How old is it? Can you still find supplies for it?


The original Apple printer which is where this 72dpi thing got started, and apparently, will never go away (no matter how misunderstood or useless).

That's kid stuff
I had a friend - worked for the "government" - sent a picture of me standing on the flight deck of my ship in the Tonkin Gulf back in the day. Taken from a sattelite camera, it was clearer than my yearbook picture! Funny, but I haven't heard from him in years. And I haven't been able to find the photo since the last time we moved. Odd how things disappear, isn't it?
Have to go now, someone's at the do

”I’m from the government and I’m here to help!”

I spent two years in the Tonkin gulf (64,65) on CVA 31. One of the dumbest things I did in those days was that I never took one picture. Still can’t believe it.

You need to find that "enhance" software they have on those tv crime shows :-)


If you do find it, please post a link so that the rest of us can also get it.

Topaz has a program....gigapixel that works really well. You could try do a trial and see what you think. We have 6 boxes of old family images...it will keep hubby busy foreverhttps://topazlabs.com/gigapixel-ai/


I just had the opportunity to use this software and it worked like a champ, chugging out a 26mp file from a tiny phone pic...plenty of depth to work in PS. Good stuff and ideal for those "internet" shots...

For future reference you should have been able to do it using "Export". If Ps is anything like Lr (it usually is) there will be an "Image Sizing" section in Export with a "Resize to Fit" box that you can check. You can choose the "Long Edge" option and insert a value of 1920 pixels for a full screen version, or use a bigger value if you want a bigger file, then export as usual. It should let you know if your request is not achievable.

Before you try to load Topaz look at their minimum hardware requirements from their web site. I think it is 4gb Vram on Video Board and 8gb on Ram (absolute minimum) for memory. Would not run with my Video Board - had to get a new one with 4gb Vram. The $59.00 software turned out to be $59.00 plus $85.00 for the video board. Also upgraded my ram to 32gb which made a big difference in the speed of Photoshop functions. That was an additional $140.00 (not that I needed it for Topaz).

Topaz Gigapixel is amazing; I've used it a lot. Do a 30 day trial.

Thanks for all the Replies , but up to now ,
no one has answered the question .. How come it
enlarged a great many time when I right clicked
save as Screen background with out distortion .


If you're happy with the "desktop" version; clear the desktop
of all the "desktop short cuts" hit the PrtSc button up the
top of your keyboard to take a "screenshot".

Then open MS Paint and hit paste.

There's your photo ready to save and print.

Game Analysis:
Geeks ignored important element of OP query and relied on conventional “Snowball” offense but lacked coordination. Never scored. Quite possibly Geeks still do not comprehend NbCU’s “Silver Bullet”.
