    If you can, upload the image you are inserting and upload the Photoshop file you want to insert it into.

    I will start a new thread where some of our other users who are better with PhotoShop can hep us get it inserted properly:

    I tried changing the dpi in photoshop and it didn't work.

    As an example, when I open one of my jpeg renderings in photoshop, the image size reads as 12.5 inches x 5.44 inches at 72 dpi.  When I copy it into one of my layouts (also in photoshop), the image shrinks down to 3 inches x 1.26 inches and I am forced to enlarge it (I want it at least 6 inches wide).  When I enlarge the image, it is horribly distorted and blurry, whereas the original rendering is quite crisp and clean.  I do not understand why it shrinks when I put it in another document in the same program.  I would rather shrink the original rendering down to the size I want because there is a much smaller chance of distortion.  I just cannot figure out why the size changes when I copy and paste within the same program.

    I can set the dpi right here in my version of PhotoShop, but it's a few years old:

    2506661342?profile=original

    What kind of document, what application, do you paste them into?

    By the way, when we looked into setting the dpi for the image when we save it, we found that it was in different places in the image file for different applications, there is not one standard setting, so we decided to just let you do it in the target application.

    I(f it is just DPI which is the problem, load the original image into Photoshop, change the DPI, but not the resolution, and resave it. Then you should be able to copy and paste in properly.

    But, again, you need to decide what pixel resolution will need for your photo shop image and make sure that you render to that resolution.

    How large do you want the image to be in Photoshop?

    For example, if you are creating a 10" image at 150 DPI, you will need to render it to a customs sizex or 1,500 pixels wide. If you are trying to create something larger, you will need to render it to a larger size.

    My renderings are really nice and I am quite happy with them, but they are rendering at 72 dpi.  In Photoshop, when I copy and paste into a new document, the renderings shrink down to about 2" x 3" and when I enlarge they are incredibly blurry.  The original renderings are so crisp and clear, but no matter what I do, I can not keep that resolution or quality when I copy them into other documents.  I feel like I have tried just about everything and am at the end of my rope.  I don't see a setting in iRendernxt to change dpi - is that even an option?  The conversations in the forums are asking much more specific questions and I am not following.

    In the rendering setup, where we can choose, sm/med/lg - there are numbers - is that the pixel size you refer to in the forums?  How can this help me?  I use 50 passes on the renderings - is more necessary?  Like I said the quality of the rendering looks so nice until I take it into photoshop and try to manipulate it.

    I am sorry, but there us no way to set DPI in IRender nXt. If you are using an rendered image where DPI is important to some other application, you will have to load the image into a program, such as PhotoShop which can set DPI, and change the DPI and resave it. You can change the DPI without changing the actual pixel resolution of the image.

  • Jayne Leighty April 5, 2012 at 11:05am

    How do you set the dpi?  I cannot find the setting and my renderings are coming out at 72 which does not work for the project I am working on.  Thanks!

    More passes make a better rendering - not higher resolution - but better quality at the resolution you choose.

    Again you may want to test with a smaller resolution first to determine how many passes you want.

    64 bit will let you use more RAM - but if you can cheaply add 4GB or more, you should do it for a large rendering.
