Re: Resolution and Banding

["Bob Frost" <bobfrost@btopenworld.com>]

How are people getting these incredibly high resolutions images that need
downsampling to 720ppi?

Most people have been arguing for years as to whether we should upsample our
images to get them up to 240 ppi or 360 ppi.

I scan at 4000 ppi and print at A4 or A3 (8x10 or 11x16) and only get 480 or
so ppi at A4 and 360 ppi at A3. And that's without any serious cropping.
Wouldn't it be nice to have the luxury to throw away unnecessary pixels!
