Basically, if I send a print off, am I best to resize it to the right size and PPI that I want it printing to, even it if re samples DOWN, or would I still get the same quality print if the image is larger than the print size.
e.g. (figures not correct at all btw just to show what I mean)
Actually picture, 4000x3500px
Print needed, 10"x8"
to print that picture out at that size the PPI would be say 800. so there is technically too much information there that isnt going to get printed. will I get a better result if I re sample the image to the correct size, reducing the px.
e.g.
from 4000x3500px resize to 2000x1500 300PPI to give 10x8
