Re: [applekeynote] Re: Large graphics files

your slide is a set resolution (same res as your projector) anything
MORE than the set amount of pixels of your slide is useless. as Juan
said, this is NOT print. there's not even dpi. There's just pixels. if
your preso is 1024x768 and you're filling half a slide, that's not a
lot of pixels. Set your image to 72 dpi (just a good rule of thumb,
and Keynote plays nice with that number) and then just forget it and
go by sheer pixels in your image. Width and height in pixels is all
you need to deal with. I'd even go as far as saying, scaling it in
Photoshop to the final slide size will likely look better than letting
Keynote do it.
