Does anyone know how to save a rendering higher then 72dpi.
I need to print my work out at atleast 300dpi.

Please help! I can't figure this out - Matty

It depends on the size really.

What are you trying to do? Bitmap or vector style rendering.

One method is to draw things much larger than required and then capture them and change image resolution in something like photoshop to 300 dpi without resampling.

You could also go through the process of trying to vectorize a bitmap in illustrator.

The best is if your program is vector-based in  the first place, then you can export to illustrator using simplePostscript, or AIExport and reproduce at any size.

I'm just going through this learning curve myself and have updated AIExport to work with Beta (still testing), and frequently use postscript.

I'll put some links in - hang on. Oh! by the way a few of the posts in this section refer to this subject.
