PPI question

Is there a way to render or export at 300ppi or above when you export a Bmp?

I just realized as I was perusing my TIFFs that they are all at 75 (when I resaved the Bmp as a TIFF) I must be missing something here. I did attempt saving to TIFF at 300, but of course that completely denegrates quality to print…

Will ZBrush be able to export as a TIFF in the future? Bmp is okay for my web work, but I really need TIFF formatting for my print jobs.

Hi Kathy…I’ve always rendered my final image in a large size, then take it into PhotoShop to convert it to what I want - size, DPI & file type. All my print-outs come out very nice & sharp. Z’ya later… Mark.

Hi Kathy…One more alternative to enlarging your image for print - visit the link below to check out a product called “Genuine Fractals”. I’ve not used it as of yet, but I have a friend who uses it a lot & has nothing but good things to say about it. Just thought I’d mention it - they also have a demo on thier site I believe??? See’ya later… Mark.

I’ll give it a test drive.
