Ok, I gotta make a movie theatre slide, they sent me instructions about size, format etc. but its for photoshop and I don't own photoshop, just fireworks.

Quote:
Finished File should be the template dimensions, in the JPEG format, RGB color mode at 300 PPI

Open file in PhotoShop at 300PPI, RGB color mode with antialiased and constrain proportions selected.

Flatten Image and save as jpeg file. JPEG setting should be Quality: 10; Format option: set to baseline; Size: 56.6 KBPS.


what is 300 PPI RGB color mode?
does it mean just have it in colour? or is that like a 256 color mode or what?

what is 300PPI, parts per Inch? they sent me the dimensions in inches so Im wondering.

Is it talking about this option?

Quality: 10?
does that mean 10%? or does photoshop have like a 1~10 system for quality?

set to baseline?
what does that mean, what does that do?

size: 56.6 kbps?
Is this another weired sizing measurement, or like preset quality or something?

I appreciate any help thanks guys

The PPI is indeed the highlighted area. If you have to make something like a poster or anything to that size 300 sounds correct, could be needed even more (depends on the size obviously).



The "10" quality. When you finish the work in Photoshop and save the file in jpeg, right when you save it will ask you what quality the file will have. 10 offers the lowest compression but best visual quality (or 1, i don't remember lol)


About hte other's i don't know.
