The window that pops up will show you your image size, image DPI, colour space, file size and more. Once your image has opened in ‘Preview’, hover over ‘tools’ and click ‘show inspector’.Again, once you’ve found your file and right clicked, you will now hover over ‘open with’ and then select ‘preview’ to open up your image.Under the ‘more info’ drop down menu, you will find your image dimensions and colour space. Under the ‘general’ drop down menu you will find your file size and type.After doing the steps to locate your file in your files folder and right clicking, you will now click ‘get info’ to open up your image properties window.One shows you the basic properties while the other shows you more. There are two ways to find your image properties on a Mac. The ‘details’ tab will show you your image dimensions, file size, DPI and more.By default, the properties window will open on the ‘general’ tab but to find all your photos information, click on the ‘details’ tab.After doing the above steps all you have to do next is click on properties.After that, you need to find the image in your files folder and right click on the file.įrom this step, PC and Mac look a little different so we will break them down separately from now.Firstly, you need to ensure the image is saved on your computer.So you’ve found what you believe to be the perfect image but you’re not entirely sure it will work for your design or print job… what do you do?
