Taking pic that "Preserves" size

  • Thread starter WWGD

In summary, the conversation discusses the best way to send physical pictures that need to meet certain size requirements. It is suggested to either send the pictures as a file or paste them into a document where the scaling and printer page size can be controlled. The recipient should specify the physical size and DPI they want the pictures printed at.

TL;DR Summary
I have a small set of images , all of same size, axb. How can I take a pic where the images come out in the same size axb ?
I have a small set of images , all of same size, axb. How can I take a (Phone camera) pic where the images come out in the same size axb ? I just need to send the actual physical pics elsewhere, or at least I need to provide these pics statisfying several specs , including dimension- wise from the originals.

If you have them already then just send them intact or combine into a pdf and send them. You can email them to your email acct and then download to your phone for sending via messaging if thats what you want to do.

Thanks. Thing is they must be turned in as physical pics, satisfying size restriction, not as a file. Then they would have to be printed at the receiving end while preserving size restriction. Edit: Trying to save on cost of sending it to a remote place.

So you need to send pictures that will be printed at the final destination at actual 1:1 size.

You can paste the pictures into a Word document or Visio document where you can control the scaling and the printer page size. Just be careful that you don't size them for 8.5"x11" paper and have them printed at the far end on Euro size or legal size paper...

Surely you just resize them to the required size and send them to the recipient? The recipient should tell you the physical size they want them printed and the DPI they are using when printing.
