Canvas Size and Some Help…
on: November 27, 2021, 12:55:46 PM
Hello everyone!
What’s the maximum canvas size on ASP for iPad Pro (11-inch) (2nd generation)?

I’d like to send some of my work to a professional printer (18x24” = 5400x7200pix 300DPI & 24x36” = 7200x10800pix 300DPI).
Do I start on actual canvas size (18x24” @300DPI) or half the size (9x12” @600DPI) and then enlarge to actual size?
Or, start at double the size @300DPI and then reduce to actual?
Google search suggests that it’s always better to start at double the size.

Any help is greatly appreciated…

Physical size is pretty much irrelevant to a digital painting program, it's the resolution that matters.

18 inch x 24 inch @ 300 dpi is 5400x7200
9 inch x 12 inch @ 600 dpi is also 5400x7200

So both are identical and will produce the same results
