Hi to all i have been sent a photo from a phone
to go into a wedding album
the file size is 39kb
it needs to be printed to 12x10
is it possible to make this file bigger
 
Get it printed at 12x10 and see how it looks. Also, you can print it small then scan it I a decent scanner. I have a 24x20 framed print of my daughter that came from a 9x6 print and it's really good
 
I had it printed at 8x6 came out pixelated
i will try the scan idea
thanks testbloke
 
Why is the file size so tiny? Pictures from phones are normally much, much bigger than that. Can you ask for a larger version of the photo?
 
At that file size the answer is simply no. Even if you can increase the dimensions by scanning or some other method the quality at the file size will be so poor you'll be embarrassed
 
I'm guessing (hoping) that the image isn't yours, so don't take it on yourself to make it work, just ask for the original image and tell them you can't work with what was supplied.

Perfectly simple.
 
+1 ^^^ to what Hugh and Phil say

In file size terms you cannot make a silk purse out of a sows ear!
 
I'm not saying it isn't useful, but that entire flowchart and set of tables can be compressed into one short sentence:

If you have 6 megapixels or more, you can print at any size you like.

(There are caveats and assumptions built into this statement, but they're the same caveats and assumptions that the author of that article made, so we haven't over simplified it.)
