NX7.5 High Resolution image output

NX7.5 High Resolution image output

NX7.5 High Resolution image output

(OP)
People,

can someone point me towards the best method of exporting from NX7.5 a high resolution file from
a Renderred image. I am needing something that can be printed large and still hold its
definition and clarity ...

many thanks in advance

Gary

RE: NX7.5 High Resolution image output

If you have the Photo-quality rendering code, you can do it. The result is an image stored on disk. I have seen some images take hours to compute because of the detail.

RE: NX7.5 High Resolution image output

We have the rendering module and I have the option to shade things in high quality but the only way I see to export an image (TIFF) is dependent on screen resolution. Is there a way to export a higher that screen resolution?

RE: NX7.5 High Resolution image output

When you have the High Quailty Image dialog open, select the 1st icon 'Image Perferences' and then under 'Image Size' change it to 'User Defined' and then you can set any image parameters that you wish including both size and resolution. But be warned, creating large images with high resolutions can take a very long time.

RE: NX7.5 High Resolution image output

Note that you need to save the image thru the high quality dialog and not via File - export. ( The latter will screendump the display and not the true rendered image.)
I once rendered an image that printed was 5 meters long (!) the file was so large that windows could not display it on the screen. The printshop people was happy though.
