    Hi

    Used a voucher about 2 years ago with one of the more expensive studio firms - V - and got a great framed pic.

    Good thing is that a cousin knew the photographer and he gave us a dvd with all the other pics on it - super.

    They are all 6-20mb files - so great quality - but are TIFF files.
    In most self service shops - the machines only recognise Jpeg's

    so where can I get good quality prints done -on-line would be great.
    Or do I convert thr tiff files to jpeg's ?

    7*5 's and slightly bigger.

    Thanks

    If you convert them to the highest resolution jpeg (and only do it once - don't save from jpeg to jpeg) then you shouldn't have an issue with them at all. Are they 16bit tiffs? You could also try bringing them down to 8 bit, as some printers don't seem to like the 16 bit ones.

    If you want good quality, stay well clear of the self service units. They're rubbish. Where are you located?

    oh, and you need to be sure you're allowed to print them. I'm sure if he gave you such large files on dvd then you're grand, but you could be breaking the law, and most labs will ask when they see pro quality stuff.

    Thanks

    I am in Navan but Dublin is good too.
    Do any of ye use an on-line printing service or are they just the same as a self-service shop - print quality wise.

    I will convert them and see how they turn out.

    never even though of the second part. Will enquire from cousin.

    Thanks
