decorators3 Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 HI I've done several exterior renderings for a building company. They have opened new offices and need me to resend the original renderings so they can mount each rendered building into 30" x 16" frame. Can you tell me the best exporting format so the renderings do not loose any sharpness when enlarged Many thanks Levina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisb222 Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Change the export dimensions to "Units" and set the Resolution to at least 300 pixels/inch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll tell you what format and minimum resolution they prefer. Jim 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiAngelo Posted November 18 Share Posted November 18 Choose 600dpi for best results at actual size. Use 1200dpi if you plan to enlarge the image. The latter is what we send as proofs to agencies and PowerPoint slides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBCooper Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 File type also matters because some file formats are "lossy" (such as jpg) and some are not compressed (like bmp). I prefer to use png unless the people that you are sending them to request a specific format. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBCooper Posted November 19 Share Posted November 19 Units. If you are exporting pixels and you increase the resolution, you will just get a smaller picture and it won't look any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
