Ramie Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) I seemed to have lost the option to save as a high quality jpeg? What have I done? Now when I save something, my file is downsized significantly. Edited October 26, 2016 by Ramie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I need a screenshot of the next window. The one that appears after you press "Save" in this window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Ta. For what purpose are you saving this jpeg file? Is it for print? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramie Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes. It's for print. Before I saved it, the file was 10mb and after I saved it, it's 1.7mb. The dimensions say they remain the same though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes, that's right. That's what jpeg does, it's a compressed file format. What size are you printing it? http://www.damiensymonds.net/2015/08/about-jpeg-file-size.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramie Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 I will actually be giving the file to a friend and she will print on her own, I'm not sure exactly what size she will be printing it. I think I need to sign up for your sharpening class, so I have a better understanding of all of this output/saving/sharpening. I'm feeling pretty clueless at the moment. I'm thinking I might have had the quality cranked up to 12 at one point and that's why I'm noticing a shift from the file sizes I was used to seeing. Thank you for the link clarifying my misunderstandings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Level 8 is fine. Don't make it bigger, it will just make it more unwieldy for your friend to manage. And yes, PLEASE take the Sharpening Class. So much will make so much more sense to you then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramie Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Thanks so much! I will go take a look at the sharpening class. I'm barely making my way over here since you left facebook! Yikes! I need to take some time to figure out your new website. I very much appreciate your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Have you read the Raw Class yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramie Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yes, I've been in both your raw and levels class for a couple of years now, although I believe my levels membership may have lapsed recently. They've both helped me immensely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I mean, have you read the NEW raw class material? Just checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramie Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 Sorry to leave you hanging! We've had a crazy few days! I haven't read the NEW material! I didn't know there was new material! I'm headed off to find it now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramie Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 So....ummm....super embarrassing, but where do I find it? I really haven't figured out your new site yet. I'm sure it's super intuitive, I'm probably just a little slow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Just click "Home" or the "askquestions" logo at the top of the page, then scroll down to the "Classes" section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
