#Big Pictures
5 messages in this thread
Hi there,
this is the first time for me on this board, and i hope, someone can help me.
Often i am rendering for architects, who like to have very big pictures like
4 – 6 x 2 meters in good quality. Is it possible to render more than 9999 x
9999
pixels?
Thanks for help

Claus:
FWIW, 9999×9999 would give you a file size of 286 MB if rendered in 24 bit
color and just over 96MB in 8 bit. Do you have the resources to create, store,
transport and print files this large? The 9999 pixel size may be a limit,
we'll have to await official word on this one.

Hi Robert,
thank you for your answer. In the actual case, i have to make a picture like 4
x 1 meter. The photoshop who prints the picture is able to scale the borders to
double size without loosing qualility. The print-quality has to be 80 lines/cm.
So i think this way:
length-side:
400 cm x 80 lines = 32.000 lines. 32.000 / 2 (job of the photoshop) = 16.000
lines
high-side:
100 cm x 80 line = 8.000 lines. 8.000 / 2 (job of the photoshop) = 4.000 lines
(here no problem)
I thing, i try to render with the _render_blow_up_ function and render four
times the 4000 x 4000.
My problem is, it has to be finish in 4 days.
Thanks for your help.

Claus,
Assuming your system can actually render the image (this is a tremendously
large image you are rendering) you can render at resolutions larger than 9999
by using command line rendering. There is a 9999 restriction in the
render/setup dialogue box, because there are only four spaces for numbers.
Check out chapter 2 in the advanced users guide which talks about command line
rendering.

Thank you for the tip. I will try it at the next job. (have never used the
command line rendering bevor) 😉
thanks again
