margaretbonson Posted November 3, 2017 Author Share Posted November 3, 2017 seems to be a stupid question but once I download the jpeg from my website how do I get all the info back for its size, pixels, etc. that I need to check? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Open it in Photoshop, and go to Image>Image Size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margaretbonson Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hi Damien, Looking back through this thread makes me laugh... Anyway, I upgraded to a more professional webpage and I'm trying to get it under way... I just need some preparing images for upload ... Here is a tutorial from the website company https://help.pro.photo/wordpress/images-media-library/prepare-images-for-upload/ Here is what I am assuming from this: 1. Open photo in PS 2. Use the crop tool, W x H x Resolution, set width to 2000 px 3. Then what should I set my height? 4. File, save - as .. then what? Thanks Damien.

Expand This is correct, but if you're following their advice and aiming for a 400KB file, you need to lower the quality value. You can see the estimated size just below the bottom left corner of the photo - in this screenshot it's presently 594.7KB. You use the Quality slider in the top right corner to lower that size.

margaretbonson Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 Can you help me with batch saving PSD files to jpegs for web output? The workflow would be... add watermark, sharpen for web, flatten image, resize for web, save as for web. Am I missing anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

margaretbonson Posted May 1, 2018 Author Share Posted May 1, 2018 Great, thanks again! I feel like my thinking is off right now but.. if I am trying to save a portrait shape photo for web, can I set the width to 2000 px? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 That is a VERY good question. Yes, the instructions seem to infer that it's 2000 wide for all photos, regardless of orientation. But do you have a way of confirming that? Do they have a help line or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margaretbonson Posted May 1, 2018 Author Share Posted May 1, 2018 They do, and apparently are known for their excellent customer service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Excellent. Then you might as well ask the question to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
