Denshin48 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 ok I know Photoshop can do this but is there anyway to make the pixel size not change if im messing with the print size of a photo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 That's already how it works. If you only change "Resolution" in Image->Resize then the print size changes but not the pixel size. (And that's because "print size" is just a function of resolution and pixel size) Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denshin48 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) it doesnt work like that at all when I do it, the image looks like bloody potato when I mess with the resoluton to make it the correct print size, and when I try to then print it, the image is as big as the piece of paper when it shouldnt be anywhere close to that (.69x.95cm is the print size im going for) Edited April 13, 2012 by Denshin48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yes but does the image look like mush on-screen or only when you go to print? If it still looks the same on-screen then you probably just need to work with more pixels from the start, and/or configure the printing stuff more specifically (or use another app to print).

Denshin48 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 when I go to print it goes pixelated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Ok so you've got the thing solved with respect to "changing print size without changing the pixels." Now you've just run into Paint.NET's poor printing capabilities.
