Palm Tale Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hi all, I have a Affinity Photo Design that I have built with 4800 x 4000 pixels; 300dpi and my customer wants to have it in logo size, so quite small for a letter head. I do not quite manage to maintain the quality of my bigger file. Would anyone have the expertise in Affinity Photo of how to resize to such a smaller size (approx. 2,5 inch to 1,5 inch) maintaining the good quality? thx in advance, Kristina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Gabe Posted June 12, 2018 Staff Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hi @Palm Tale, Welcome to the forums. Downsizing does not affect the quality. Only upsizing does. As for the size you mentioned, 2.5 x 1.5inch @ 300 dpi = 750 × 450 Pixels . TO resize it, you can either resize the canvas: Or Resize at export: Thanks, Gabe.

Staff MEB Posted June 12, 2018 Staff Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hi Palm Tale, Welcome to Affinity Forums Downsizing can blur/fuzzy the output. Make sure you select an apropriate Resample algorithm like Lanczos or Bicubic to help improve things a little.

toltec Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 As @MEBsays but you might find it very useful to apply a bit of Unsharp Mask sharpening after resizing. It depends on the image. Layer > New Live Filter Layer > Unsharp Mask Filter (add a filter layer) or Filters > Sharpen > Unsharp Mask (destructive so no layer. but you can use this with a split view which makes it easier to see the effect. Do this after you resize down Quote Windows PCs. Photo and Designer, latest non-beta versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
