Photoshop :: Large Posters
Aug 26, 2007
I'm working with rather large files (.tif ~1000mmx600mm 300ppi) and i get this problem: My Photoshop is installed in C: drive which has approximately
5Gb of free space.
When i make a few actions with those large .tif files (like move a layer or something) my drive gets full. I loose all the free space in my drive. I have to save my work and restart the image to free up that lost space. I know that if i leave more free space on my drive i'll be able to make more actions, but eventually the drive will fill up again and i'll have to restart the image again.
The thing is that i'm working with a laptop which has a hard drive with a
5000 rpm. What if buy an external hard drive with a 7200 rpm and 500 Gb and connect it to my laptop. Would this improve the performance of working with those large files?

I'm trying to make a poster in photoshop as a X-mas gift for a friend (he's a huge MJ fan) and I was wondering if I need to change any settings or maybe there's some type of rule or guidline I would need to follow.
The size is 36in x 24in
Would I have to change the color modes or DPI.

I have made a poster for a friend, but when printed the writing always comes out a little fuzzy, how do I get around this? I don't think it is a problem with the printer as it is really good, also the image I created was a high resolution. Does anyone else do poster design? How do you manage to get the writing ultra crisp and clear like pro posters?

We'd like to create some A0 size posters with the entire text of a book on it at around 3-4pt text size with some images too. Is Illustrator going to be the best programe to handle the formatting?

I created some posters last year and I need to make them again this year. For some reason I'm not able to increase the font size past 1000.
I wrote down the instructions last year. The only thing I can't remember is how I increased the font to 2000. I can get the font size to 1000, but as soon as I increase it nothing shows up on the screen except the blinking cursor.
I'm using Paint.net 3.5.10 build 3.510.4297.28964 on windows 7. I have the image resolution set to 300.
I have also tried this same thing using the latest version of Paint.net on windows 8. I get the same behavior but I can't increase the font size past 900.
The file I created is too large to attach.

my issue is that the images need to be at least 220 in wide and 90 in tall.. and I can work with the image photoshop handles if fine for the most part my issue is that I can find any brushes that are big enough to use.. I have some that I use for everyday pictures and stuff like that.. but Ive tried making the brush as big as I can.. then Ctrl - T and stretch it out.. but by the time in done.. they look so distorted that I almost don't know what they are anymore..

trying to type a title for a book cover, but whenever I go over, say, 24 pt, it gets all fuzzy.
The font is less important than clarity.
How do I type in 60 pt and have the letters look clear and crisp instead of jagged?

Every new file in Photoshop CS5 is suddenly too large. For example, an 8 1/2 x 11 document at 300dpi (created simply with the Photoshop preset), is now 80MB on the disk drive after saving. In the past, it would be only 1MB.

I currently work for a fashion company whom do lots of designs using photoshop and the rest of the adobe applications.
When they save PSD files they're about 1GB in size.
Storage on the server seems to be getting very low now and we need to do something about it. We have several options in place for extra storage but would like your advice on down sizing the PSD files?
For example:
1) Are there add-ins to downsize?
2) Are they saving the files wrong?
3) Are they using wrong effects. layers etc?
4) Is it normal to have 1GB PSD files?
5) What can they do to have smaller PSD files?

I'm using Photoshop CS6 to assemble and export a series of extremely high-res tiles. Long story short, they will be used to make up a large map in a mobile app.
I have a pretty tight deadline and I've just been stopped in my tracks by an error I get when I try to scale them up.
Each tile is a layered PSB file, 16384 x 16384px at 72dpi, about 2-3GB in size. All I want to do is scale them up to double their size - 32768 x 32768px.
When I try to do this, I receive the error, 'Could not complete the Image Size command because the result would be too big'.
What exactly does this mean in terms of size (filesize or pixel dims)? What's the problem?
Since I'm working in PSB format and I'm resizing within the bounds of the 300,000px limit, I don't understand why I'm not permitted to scale up to 32768px.
I need to preserve the layers as Smart Objects in order to upscale them... so no flattening.
All I can think of is splitting the files into smaller tiles (I currently have 28 tiles to upscale).

We have 5 designers sharing design files across a windows network. Everyone is running photoshop CS6 cloud subscriptions (which have auto updated to 13.0.1). The team have created and opened PSD files fine since July. Over the last 3 weeks we have had 5 files so far become unopenable - we get the message: “could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version”. Could it be that they are too large? The problem files are larger than the rest at around the 1GB mark. We are running HPZ210 PCs with Windows 7, solid state drives for the software, regular HDD for the data, and 16 GB Ram. One file at least was housed on a hard drive as well as the server and neither the local or network version of the file opens so it doesn’t seem to be a server issue. Five people on different subscriptions and computers have tried opening the files to no avail. Files were working ok one day, then not opening the next.

This is probably a basic one for most people, but I'm pretty clueless... I've got a fairly large image (3000px) that I need to scale down to 500-ish px. How do I best go about doing this without getting that awful 'halo' effect? I've tried gradually scaling down without much success.

I have a large psb file which is an image of 39k by 27k pixels at 48 bpp. The image size is about 5.7 GB. PS CS6 trial only gives me the option to save it as a TIFF or Photoshop RAW only. I would like to use this large image as a master copy from which I can sample lesser quality images for printing. How can I save such images as a JPG or BMP file, that is down sample it and place the result in a smaller jpg or bmp file?
I read some other similar discussions and they all concern problems with the plugins folder. I have not inserted any plugins from previous CS versions. The only plugins that I have in there are authorized CS6 plugins for the scanner fix from Adobe. Is it even possible to down sample from such a large image?

I am asked to do a large print of an A1 size poster which is 840mm x594mm,so would it be wiser to half those dimensions given,or even 1/4 of that size in order to avoid my maching going slow? would the printer still understand how hes meant to go about,if i specify the actual dimensions?

I'm using/testing Photoshop CS6 for our company. We are using CS5 for 2 years with no issues. But PS CS6 crashes on lareg files. Say above 100Mb, with some layers. When saving the file, PS just closes with no message. Windows than says PS stopped working. And in the Eventviewer there is a error event.
I'n running no extra pluginns, just CS6 standard, fully up to date. Windows 7 32bits, 4Gb of RAM, 1 harddisk, Mac mini with i7, fully up to date. CS5 never gave issues with the same files.

I created a design for my fraternity's new rush banner we need to have made. It's going to be 10ft x 8ft. I originally sent the design scalled down to 1000pixels x 800 pixels. The gentleman working with us replied that I must send him the image scaled down at 350 dpi or in real size at 72dpi. After changing the resolution to 350 pixels per inch (I'm assuming that means dpi), I tried scaling it up just to make sure everything looked correct. *The problem is though that when scaled up to 120in X 96in, the text as well as edges of the colors have a haze around them. Will this come out when printed?

I have CS5 and whenever I try saving any file type to PDF it maximizes the file size tremendously. I have flattened the layers so that is not the issue, and it doesnt seem to do it with other file formats, so it makes me think there is a hidden preset that i cant find pertaining to PDF formatting. Example: Opened up a PDF file sized at 3.1M, and saved it without making any changes and it jumped to a size of 10.3M. (I tried doing the same thing in Photoshop 7 and the file stays at the size of 3.1M.)

I'm having huge problems with opening large files. They're slowing down my entire machine, and even minor things such as resizing a layer with the file can result in 10 minute waits. I'm hoping I don't have to reinstall the OS, but I really cannot work out why there's such a jump in performance. It's becoming impossible to work with files approaching 1GB, leat alone some of the 2-3GB files I need to, which previously weren't a problem.
I've recently upgraded to CC from CS5 on a 2.6GHz i7 MacBook Pro (less than a year old, circa. Jan 2013), with 8GB RAM and 500+ GB free memory on a 1TB hard drive. I don't have any third party plug-ins, and am very careful with fonts.
I've let Photoshop use 80% of the 6440MB of available RAM.Activity monitor is showing PS uses about 60% of the CPU when saving, otherwise only 30/40%, about 5GB of virtual memory, and I have plenty of space on the disk.I don't know if it's odd, but my sleepimage file is about 8.6GB, which seems large? Also, there are at least 14 swapfiles all at least 1GB - should there be so many?
Should probably say I'm also using an external monitor, but performance doesn't change when I disconnect.
