exporting quality

Postby guicaut » Sun Jun 11, 2017 5:59 pm

Hello

when i save an image and i want upload it to Alamy for selling my photo i got following error message.

This image is too small.
It needs to be at least a 17MB file when uncompressed. This is likely to have a JPEG size of 3-5MB.

It seems that my photo file is just 911kb , The quality settings is 95 %
How can i fix this please?

thnx

It sounds like the picture itself is too small, as your quality settings are already high. This means starting with a higher resolution picture. It's a bit strange for them to ask for a specific JPEG size as a very high quality large jpeg can be quite small if there are large flat or flatish areas like sky. If you are happy with the picture and you can ignore that message, I'd say go for it if you can.

Kind regards

Tony
