A low-resolution file or comp-sized image will be 8" x 10" and 72 ppi. A high-resolution file will be 9" x 12" and 350 ppi. High-resolution clips can't be downloaded yet. In case you need bigger files please contact us: StockFood America, Inc. (800) 967.0229 or (207) 967.5776

File Compression

The downloaded image file will be a compressed JPEG file, saved at the maximum quality setting. The file will be compressed due to the enormous size of an uncompressed file. An uncompressed 40mb file would take 1 or more hours to download on most systems. The compressed JPEG file is only about 1mb in size.

Custom Scans

Sometimes our standard file sizes may not be big enough for your project. If this problem does arise, you can call our office at 1-800-967-0229 and ask for the image to be custom scanned. Depending on the dimensions and resolution you have requested, we can usually get a custom scan to you in 1-2 hours.
