Kuttyjoe Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 If I copy something to the clipboard from anywhere else, then go to Photoshop and create a new document, Photoshop will take the dimensions of that image, but allow me to decide the resolution. Therefore, if I copy a vector object to the clipboard from Illustrator, I can bring it into Photoshop at the resolution that I need it to be. The method used by Afinity Photo is that it copies whatever is on the clipboard and brings it in automatically at 96ppi. This is probably useful for something, but I think Photoshop has a better way. Right now I'm copying art from Illustrator, which contains a 300ppi image in addition to vector objects, and I'm bringing this into Photoshop. I can bring them in at 300ppi. To bring them in at 96 is not useful, but with the Photoshop way, I could bring them in at any resolution I need. For print work that's usually at least 300ppi, but sometimes much higher depending on the art. At the very least I think, a program should paste exactly what's on the clipboard. If an image is high resolution then it should not be reduced to 96ppi when pasted into a different program other than as an option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
