Hey, first time posting.
i need to get print files ready for an Exhibition. Its all very late notice, and ive not printed before. I need to send these files tomorrow night at the latest.
Im getting confused with all the online forums, so im ironcally posting on one to get a definitive answer...
Im using Lightroom CC to export the files. Heres what i need, and what i have done. I just need to know its right.
So most of the photos are in Landscape.
quality set to 100%
dpi/ppi 300.
'resize to fit' box is UNCHECKED.
and i changed the aspect ratio in the crop tab to 2.97 x 4.2 (and for any in portrait i have reversed this)
lastly, i have checked the "sharpen for print" on glossy, at Low.
all the prints will be in A3...
PLEASE tell me this is right. Its the Aspect ratio / sizing im having the most confusion... Ive seen all different numbers etc. Somewhere wrote the aspect ration as 2.97 x 4.2 but others as 297 x 420 (no decmial point) I have no idea what im doing, so please. If what i have done is wrong, can someone just explain it in the simplist of terms. Thanks
