#Film Output =4×5 Neg

The Problem is:
I've got a file that I thought was going out as a 81/2 x11format fiery CLC!
My client decided they want to have a color neg for flexibility in print
quantity. this makes me happy because my job will remain in the RGB world !
The problem is that I've never sent a job to film recorder before and I'm not
sure how large the Tif file needs to be! My panorama will be 11×17 and others
will be 81/2 x 11.
When I go out to 81/2 x 11 I usually use a Fuji printer that is happy w/ a
3.7 MB file and yields very slight
aliasing.
The Question is:
What worrys me is how can I come up w/ the proper file size to get me at
that threshold file size?
Also what render checklist do I need to follow in preparation for a large
file from 3ds? Please tell me that
I can type in the res and pump out graphic!!<g>
At any rate I enjoyed your msg on "life on the streets" at Sigraph,

Pre-Season is in full swing here! Actual games are 1 week away! I'm
modeling a team pennant arrangement for the spectators tents………….the
coach's response to seeing the render was "DUDE! WAY COOL!" ……musta liked
it!<G> You may guess her age and energy level!<BG> Gary
Gary:
When going to a film recorder you want to get as much info into the file as
possible so if you can manage a 5000×4000 image then go for it. This will be a
114.4 MB file, however. I've had decent results with files in the 18mb range
(2000×1600) and the prints were 18"x24". Ways to conserve space – try JPEG vs
tif or a 16 bit .tga. Let me know what you chose DUDE. <G>
