Can anyone advise at what percentage should images be viewed onscreen to accurately reflect the final look of the printed image?
I understand that you should always check at 100% view to check the effect of any image adjustments made, but is the final print more accurately represented onscreen by a 100% view or 50% (or another percentage)? I know many variables come into play here but for example, I am experimenting with the new 'shake reduction' sharpening filter in PS and I want to know how heavily I can apply this filter. At 100% artefacts appear in the image, at 50% they are not noticeable. Can anyone advise based on the following:
1. Image = A scanned 35mm transparency scanned at highest resolution of 4000dpi with my Coolscan 9000; file size 130mb.
2. Screen = Latest iMac 21.5-inch (1920 x 1080)
3. Printer = Epson 3880
4. Required Size of Printed Image = 11x 16 inch or 13 x 19 inch @ 300dpi
I don't have access to a printer (or printing experience) so I want to know how to best prepare files onscreen.
Any advice appreciated.
