When starting out in Photoshop, it’s important to understand the basics. In this article, we’ll take a look at how to scale images in Photoshop. First, let’s start with the basics: image size and resolution. Image size is the size of your image when it is displayed on your computer screen. It can be measured in pixels or inches. Resolution is how many pixels per inch (ppi). Next, let’s talk about scaling images: how to make them smaller or larger. Scaling images can be done in two ways: by reducing their resolution or by increasing their pixel count. Reducing their resolution means that they will be smaller on your computer screen, but they will still be able to be viewed as a whole. Increasing their pixel count means that they will become larger on your computer screen but they will also have more detail and color information. Now that we know all of the basics about image scaling, it’s time to start scaling images! To scale an image using Photoshop, follow these steps:
- Choose Image > Scale Image . This opens the Scale Image dialog box . 2) In the Width field , set the value to the desired width of your image (in pixels). The Height field should remain unchanged since it will determine how large the scaled image will be when displayed on your computer screen. 3) In the Quality setting , select one of three quality levels: low , medium , or high . If you do not want any changes made to the original image while scaling, choose No Quality . 4) Click OK to close the Scale Image dialog box .
