+only works with embedded images; can transform with Warp, too

| Nov 6, 2014 at 19:05 | comment | added | Scott | At that size and resolution, you should be okay with something like a perspective distort. That will really only reduce a portion of the raster image, and reduction isn't generally an issue. It's enlarging during distortion that can be more problematic. | |
| Nov 6, 2014 at 19:03 | comment | added | Chris W. | Yea it's one of those big 4 panel fold out convention displays with each panel being roughly 21" Wide by 47" Tall to be printed CMYK at 120ppi (though I'm going to use 150ppi) so that's what I was thinking, but I havent done just graphics in years so am a bit rusty from doing development for so long instead, so any advice is always welcome. | |
| Nov 6, 2014 at 18:48 | comment | added | Scott | That really depends on the project. If it's 20% raster and 80% vector, using Illustrator would be better. | |
| Nov 6, 2014 at 18:41 | comment | added | Chris W. | So maybe instead I should be asking, if I should create my vector stuff in Illustrator, then import it to Photoshop to do my Raster work and then use the result of that as my final print ready files? | |
| Nov 6, 2014 at 16:50 | comment | added | Scott | Glad to help :) Be aware.. overly distorting raster images can result in "broken pixels". Illustrator never interpolates raster data (Photoshop always does). | |
