Correction to that last post. An 8x10, 300ppi file will be about 20
megs when it's in 8-bit mode. However, you might find this a bit
cumbersome to upload from a dial-up. For this type of mag, a file of
pub, a file of about 5x7 at 300ppi will be sufficient. That will be
about 9 megs. You can save it as a high quality jpeg (9) rather than
maximum. Once compressed, the file will be less than 1 meg and
reasonably easy to deliver via e-mail from a dial-up.

I've got a few pics that are going to a magazine. They are now
4000ppi PSD
or TIFF files of about 130mb in size. The magazine wants 5x7 or 8x10
sized
JPEG files. What would be the ideal ppi for something like this - the
magazine is one of those weekend supplements for a newspaper. Also,
when
I've resized the photos and looked at them @ print size in PS, they
seem to
be smaller than the dimensions indicate. Can someone explain that to
me.
I've never done this magazine/newspaper thing before in quite this way
-
submitting the pix via email.
