Hello I just recently got my hands on parasite eve 1 and 2 and I have the images but I need to now what the size should be. Like height and width.
Thanks guys amazing group.
P.s I also tried to download one off here but it super sized my image
-
Check the cover DPI, it should be 300.
If it is 300, try these:
Set scaling to 100%, fit to page off, centering on on both horizontal and vertical.
If the DPI is 96 set scaling to 32%, other settings same.
If the DPI is 72 set scaling to 24%, other settings same.
These assume cover is from main site, covers from the boards are not nessarily measured correctly.
-
Yes it is at 300 dpi and I did get it from the site but they are only the back or front so I got both of them.
But I was wondering if the dimensions of 1767x1387 was right as it was a little to big and was wondering what the actual size was and if it was correct.

That equals 5.89" by 4.62" or 14.96cm by 11.74cm.
Which seems right, I think?
So make sure your printer settings are: Scaling 100%, fit to page off, centering on on both horizontal and vertical.

ill try again but I thought I checked them before printing.
Thank you I will try again.
By some chance I did print them both on one page with one on top and the other on the Botton so it was not in landscape could that have caused it by some chance.
-
oh I am also using Office Depot and don't won't to waste a bunch of 70 cents print for practice rounds so I want to make sure it is right.

It is highly possible that if you edited them anyway (like copied them to one page) or told printer to do special printing something changed that caused this.
But if you just printed one first then turned the paper and printed the other then they might fit one one page, but in that case you need to make sure that margins are minimal and the centering is off on vertical (or is it horizontal??) but you can check that on print preview.

Then I suggest making sure that the printer settings are correct and printing one image per page.
-
Anyway must leave, back in few hours. :D
-
ok I will try printing one out but I gave it one more shot to see if I did something stupid like put fit to page vs keep size I was kinda in a rush when I did it as my laptop battery was dying something like below 10 lol
did not bring my charger also I know geniuses level stuff lol
-
nope it is still to big I feel so frustrated by this.

Give me exact size it comes out, in CM preferably, and I'll calculate what scale you need to try print.

Combined on one page top and bottom is
H-27.2 W-17.2
While for one only it is H13.6 W-17.2
Thanks hopefully you can figure it out as I really want this parasite eve 1 and 2 covers in the original ps1 cases and not the standard dvd cases.

I only found PAL Parasite Eve 2 (front and back) on our site, but looking at the back dimensions they are way off from what they should be.
The dimensions on your cover are too narrow but too high.
Please send me link to the covers you are printing and I'll try to make sense with them. 8)
-
sure no prob I got mine from google and made them.
but how do I do it again I forgot the site to send them to lol
-
I did measure up to the ones on here so that's why their not sized right a guess. anyways I know their a way to upload file but I need to put them through some file thing but I can't remember the name.
-
I did measure them up to the one here though and that does explain why they don't add up
-
oops double post sorry lol
-
I think I found it

Now I get it.
Those covers are for those 3 or 4 CD cases that Final Fantasy 7 and 8 came in.
I compared them and as far as I can tell those should fit that case type perfectly.
-
But they don't their too big I have a print and it is bigger the than the case.
-
also their only two disc each even though it says three I only have the first two and not the bonus cd
-
I print them in portrait does it need to be landscape.
-
Did you say what program you were printing from?
If you are using Photoshop, trying using this template. You can copy your images into this template and resize them to match the template. This template is ready to print to the correct sizes. It also allows for printing front and back at the same time.

I will give it a shot thanks and I use photoshop as I am a graphic design student and I am still learning printing as I am pretty new to it and this helps a lot
-
Ok it mostly works as it is just a tad bit to small. its not bad its just not long enough to fir both side with the side but do not worry about it I will keep it short as it does fit and thats the important part. I can not say thank you enough for this and your time so thank you again I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day/week/weekend.
Also if you have not seen endgame yet go see it you deserve it.
