Chapter 10: Saving and Printing Pictures
Microsoft Digital Image Standard User’s Manual
Saving for E-mail and the Web
Unlike photos for printing, photos for e-mail and the Web work best if they are
relatively low resolution. Low-resolution photos, such as one that is 440 x 330
pixels, move faster through dial-up modems, and they are the right dimensions
for viewing on most computer monitors.
To save a photo for e-mail or the Web:
1. On the File menu, point to Save a Copy For, and then click Save for
E-mail or Web
.
2. Do one of the following:
Click a picture size
Set maximum dimensions
3. Click Save As
.
The Save As dialog box opens.
4. Click the folder to which you want to save the photo.
5. In the File name box, type a file name, and then click Save
.
Avoid sending large
photos in e-mail
Sending high-resolution
photos in e-mail may
cause problems for your
recipients. For example,
a single 5-megabyte
(MB), high-resolution
image will take over 20
minutes to download on
a 28.8-Kbps modem.
Also, some e-mail
programs limit the size
of attachments, and
may, for example, block
e-mail with attachments
larger than 1 MB.
