Custom resizes

Postby Kris on Mon Jul 30, 2007 10:22 am

Hi Guys,

I want to resize a series of photos to various different dimensions. PhotoKing will print these custom sizes but when I set Lightroom to put in the custom sizes, its fine and I save the image. I open the image in Photoshop to make some color changes and hit Image Size to check it and its giving me totally different measurements...

Anyone know why? Or what the best way is to resize/crop an image to a custom size?

Thanks

Cropping

In Photoshop use the Crop Tool.
When you select it at the top it will give you 3 empty boxes "Width", "Height" & "Resolution"

Enter the values of the final image size, this will then lock the ratios for you when you use the crop tool
