Greetings 3DS->2->Hardcopy experts I have three easy questions Question1. Is there a formula or some guideline for outputing to hardcopy? (ie: what resolution and color deepth should you render at for say A4 paper output ? I client needs to have A1 size rendering to hang on the wall of his office..) Are we talking 6000x4000x at 24 bit? Question2. If I save this image as a large TGA will the resultant file automatically be 24bit or do I have to load and use DSPADI RDPADI & RCPADI drivers to have the file 24bit. Or are these drivers only for viewing in 24bit mode on a particular video card. Question3. The same client wants specific colors in the above rendering Is there a convertion from Pantone to RGB values. In this way his can give me a "Warm Blue pantone 24" and this equates to R=?? G=?? B=?? in the materials editor (forget gamma for a moment)?? ThanX in advance guys GH in OZ
