Question

Victoria is creating a brochure for her photography studio. She designed the layout and placed a photo in the center of the page. Being unsatisfied with the effect, she has decided to make the photo smaller. Describe the procedure Victoria will use to resize the photo.

Answer 1

Assuming Victoria is using Adobe Photoshop to create her brochure, below are the steps she is required to follow.

She should first open the image on Photoshop, click on the image option and select duplicate just in case the resized image is not what she wants.

Still on the image option, she should select Image size. A screen will pop up at this point, indicating the image’s current size. For the purposes of image resizing, Victoria should select Pixel dimensions category.

She should be able to type her preferred dimensions for both the width and height. She should make sure ‘Constrain Proportions’ is unchecked to be able to type in separate values.

If she decides to use the photo editing program, she can simply click on the image, and if resize handles appear around it, she can click and drag those to the desired size.
