Blow Images up

[robsonma]

Hi I have 2 images of a Pupil that I have been asked to blow up to life size about 4foot and would like to print on say 4x2 A3 Pages, any one got any software/websites they can recommend or ways of doing this?

What's the resolution of the original image?

What resolution are the images?

You could use The Rasterbator (SFW, ignore the connotations that are dreamt up with that name.) Edited June 20, 2016 by TechMonkey

I'd just use Photoshop... Do have any printers that print on banner paper? (1200mm x 300mm) That'd be less to cut & paste afterwards...

 

It's a pretty low resolution though, so I'd imagine it would be somewhat pixellated...

To be honest, I'd get a printer to do it for you - https://www.instantprint.co.uk/posters/a0#!?lamination=no&size=a0&paper=250gsm-silk&sided=single

 

Or, if you've got a print shop nearby they might have an A0 printer.

 

That resolution will work ok, but it won't be the best quality at that size (well, to be expected really, unless you have a ridiculously high megapixel camera).

That is an option and not too pricy, was looking at any free ways, how would you do it in photoshop? just increase the image size, Biger and Bigger?

I'd use publisher, create a new page size, then when you come to print it will spread it over the paper for you. I've done it a bunch of times
