so now that we know about the reliable , zoom ratios and we know what the , resolution of our screen is what do we , do with that information well I'm going , to show you how to use that information , in order to gauge the sharpness of an , image and the proper sharpening settings , to apply the best amount and radius , values for example and we'll see that , inside of this image , stunning by JPEG found inside the , 1 how it works folder you may recall , that this is that wonderful image from , photographerAlexandre Alexis that , already looks sharp enough we just want , to make sure that it weathers the storm , for a commercial output and then it , looks nice and sharp on the page so what , I'm gonna do first I'gonna investigate , what my print resolution is I'gonna go , up to the image menu and I'm gonna , choose the image size command or I can , press ctr alt I or command option I on , the Mac and we can see that I'vie set , this image to print at inches wide by , 8 inches tall and Have enough pixels , in order for the resolution to be W , pixels per inch which is one of the , standard print resolutions there are no , magic numbers where print resolutions , are concerned but W is based on twice , W LPI halftone screen that's where , this value comes from it's not really , necessary that you know that and just , that W and W and are some common , print resolutions out there but you can , print at anything from about W Pip , and get some very sharp imagery out of , most printers so meanwhile let's say I'm , working on a W unshakable Pro it's , fairly hilarious that I'modding that , given that'm running Windows Vista but , still you know it's a minor problem'm , working on a W unshakable Pro and it , Haas resolution of W pixels per inch , so what we would do is we'd whip out our , calculators right you must have one , sitting around someplace and you would , divide so take the number , W and divide it by and you'll get , the number to 0.W , that's going to be our multiplier so , 2.W just scribble that down if you'vie , already figured out what the resolution , of your screen is it may be something , entirely different , why then divide W by it so maybe your , screen resolution is W pixels per inch , you divide W by do the math right , down the multiplier number on a sheet of , paper then go ahead and cancel out we , don't want to change the resolution of , this image this is what we want to do , instead go up to the image menu and , choose duplicate and I want you to call , this actual print size because this guy , is really gonna represent the printed , size of the image go ahead and click on , thick' button then i want you to go up , to the image size command so this is a , separate version of the image go up to , the image size command here and I want , you to make sure that re sample image is , turned on make sure that bi cubic is , selected best for smooth gradients make , sure that constraint proportions is , turned on scale styles dozen't matter , but you might as well turn on all of , your check boxes then I want you to , change the resolution value in my case , to NOW you might change it to , something else like I said if your , screen resolution is W change it to , that so go ahead and change the , resolution value to the resolution of , your monitor and then click OK and then , I want you to zoom the image into the , hundred percent zoom ratio so Prescott , + or command + on the Mac until you see , hundred percent up here inside of the , title bar this is the size at which your , image will actually print now let us go , back to the other image the stunning W , by JPEG file go ahead and select it and , I want you Togo to the View menu and I , want you to choose this command right , here print size and it will zoom the , image out to what Photo shop thinks is , the size at which the image is really , going to print but notice how these two , images here they fairly differ from each , other your actual print size which is , the real deal my friends is different , from photo shop'Persian because , Photo shop in this case is wrong why is , Photo shop wrong because photo shop's , assuming the resolution of your screen , is pixels per inch , now you could stewardship straight by , going to the units & rulers section of , thereof , his dialogue box and changing the screen , resolution value could change that to , W pixels per inc hand in Photo shop , would get the size right problem is , that's not going to be a good zoom ratio , for you so it's gonna be if no use where , sharpening is concerned so the upshot is , we're gauging sharpening is concerned , this print size command here is of no , use to you whatsoever , having interpolated the image we now , have an accurate picture of the image I , want you to go back to it that is the , actual print size version and we're , going to use this version of the image , to gauge the best amount and radius , value sand we're going to then use those , values to sharpen the big version of the , image the stunning by JPEG file and , we're going to do that in the very next , exercise membership Linda.com , unlocks
