Ok – I am creating a business postcard for a small pc repair business I am setting up.

What I am planning one side is going to be a screeshot of a desktop.

I have taken the screen shot and changed the image size to 104.5 x 145.75 and its still bmp or should I change it to tiff. Ok – know – what resolution should I change it to?

I gather I have to change it CMYK colour.

Cheers

Scott

You need to talk to your printer company.

Thay will tell you what they like. It may be as simple as 600 dp1 jpg files – phone them.

Do you understand the bmp and tiff and jpg format differences? It does not sound like you do? Does your printer need CMYK or RGB? Ask them.
