[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 488589, member: 12496"] It seems just right as it is. 4134 x 3248 is 1.27:1 which is 14x11 shape. 4134 pixels / 14 inches is 295 dpi. We aim for 300 dpi, but plus/minus 15% is fine. The print shops probably do 250 dpi anyway. For online printing, it will not matter if the file indicates 240 dpi at 17 inches. They don't care, only the pixels are important to them. They will scale it, and if you order 11x14, you will get 11x14. You have insured the correct aspect ratio, so they won't cut any off, and you have insured sufficient pixels, and that's all you need to do. If you print it on your home printer, and it says 240 dpi at 17 inches, it will try to do that (most printers don't do 17 inches though). Just saying, our printers look at the dpi number in the file, but online printing does not. They go by the number of pixels, and the ordered paper size. [/QUOTE]
