A special note must be made for billboards and other materials that include photographs. The larger the size of the final format being intended for printing, the higher the resolution and image size of the original image should be. However, at no time should an image be artificially resized using resampling, generating a higher resolution image from a lower one. Resizing reduces the image quality the greater the difference between the initial and end image. It is better to leave resizing to the application that edits the intended document format. | A special note must be made for billboards and other materials that include photographs.

Photographs have a different colour and brightness level than it is possible to be handled by a printer and its inks or the printing medium. It is important to have very high quality, and particularly contrasting, vivid initial pictures from the camera. While editing images for higher contrast and a specific colour is advisable, such mitigations are only slight improvements that cannot fully compensate a poor initial picture. Ideally, a photo must be seen in the CMYK colour profile instead of the original RGB format, if your image editing software allows such on-the-fly simulations, to better gauge how suitable they are. Printing with similar means on smaller formats intermediate work is also very helpful. | Photographs have a different colour and brightness level than it is possible to be handled by a printer and its inks or the printing medium.

<code>''Desktop publishing is, generally, more flexible in content requirements but certain image formats and standard resolutions have to be considered depending on how demanding, and large, your material will be printed or how it will be transferred.''</code> | |||
