Hiya,  
I am new to RV but have already got some results.  
Could anyone please pass on any info with regard to making prints from a Spherical pano.  
I haven't been any to change the final rendering option to 300 dpi to make a high quality prints.  
Thanks

You won't set the output to 300dpi, you'll need to set it to the overall size you need to have that level of resolution
 
If you're going to print the image 10 inches wide, you need to output the width at 3000 pixels  
 
Example: 3000 pixels wide divided by 10 inches wide equals 300dpi
 

Hi Douglas,  
 
Thanks for your reply - much appreciated.  
I am still slightly unclear about resizing my final prints to overall selected pixel width / Height.
 
For example i have a spherical pano i would like to print - when i open this in Photoshop CS3 the image size is a whopping:
10896px(151 inches) width by 5448px(75 inches) height, resolution 72 dpi.
I would like to make a print around 1 meter wideand generally when i have my prints done i aim for around 300 dpi for the best quality?....but i am still missing something here maybe with large prints
 
If i resize to my required print size from the original to:
Width 11811px(39.37 inches) Height 5906px (19.687) and i raise the dpi to 300 the actual size of my file increases to 199.6MB from 169.8MB although the actual prints size has reduced by over  2 thirds.  
 
Is this process ok, is there any degradation in print image quality and can commercial printers deal with files this big ?  
 
Thanks so much for your help.

What you do in Photoshop makes little difference.
 
Its what you do in a program like MS Publisher or Adobe Pagemaker (what's the new layout program from Adobe).
 
If you want 300dpi from 10896pixels, you just put the image on the document 36 inches wide or less.

Hi Douglas,  
 
Thanks very much for your help.  
 
I think that has cleared thing up for me.  
 
Best regards
