Hi everyone,

 

I have to repoduce a rendering for a billboard ad (about 96"x168" @ 50/75 dpi) and was wondering if anyone knew of any software that will allow me to blow-up a rendering/image without losing too much resolution.

 

I'm having problems rendering it so big in 3ds max, keep getting "out of memory" errors, so i've decided to render it at a lower res and see if i could blow it up without losing too much resoultion. I can swear that i read something about a software that does this very well on this site in the past.

 

If anyone has any knowledge of this, can u please post ASAP. Also, if anyone can tell me if 50 dpi is enough for this ad, that would be great as well.

 

Thanks :D

i just used this .ms about 3 weeks ago to render

a 36" x 24" plotfile @200 dpi i too was getting a "out of memory" error

 

This will create 2x2 or whatever you select sections but beware

There WILL BE A 1x PIXEL BLACK LINE ON THE LOWER AND RIGHT SIDE

 

of EACH of the sections, so remember to "eliminate"" THIS

 

otherwise TOTALLY COOL extremely helpful, bailed me out of a jamb

my vote goes with s-spline

usedthis several times to go from 72 to 300 dpi in one hit

much better than the p-shop interpolations for resize imho

for me it's mainly clients wanting a image on a site signboard so for this type of work it's no hassle to take a a3 image 2480x1753 and blow it up to 3 x 2 metres

I think you should also try this app. Originally known as Shortcut S-Spline

I second that suggestion. I have S-Spline and use it on a regular basis. Very customizable (sharpening and antialiasing settings) and works as a plugin for Photoshop, if desired.
