Prepare a PDI in Photoshop
Resize, convert and save a competition-ready image using Adobe Photoshop CC.
Competition image requirements
- Fit the complete image within 1600 pixels wide × 1200 pixels high, including portrait images.
- Save as a high-quality JPEG.
- Use the sRGB colour space.
Before resizing
Finish the image and save it as a TIFF, PSD or JPEG. The steps differ for landscape and portrait orientations.
Landscape image
- Open the finished image in Photoshop CC.
- Choose Image → Image Size, set Width units to pixels and enter 1600. The height updates proportionally.
- If the resulting height is more than 1200 pixels, close without saving and follow the portrait method instead.
- Choose Edit → Convert to Profile. Under Destination Space, Profile should be sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
- Select OK.
- Choose File → Save As, select or create a folder and choose JPEG as the file type. If only JPEG 2000 is offered, close the dialog and choose File → Save a Copy instead. Give the file a meaningful name.
Portrait image
- Open the finished image in Photoshop CC.
- Choose Image → Image Size, set Height units to pixels and enter 1200. The width updates proportionally.
- Choose Edit → Convert to Profile. Under Destination Space, Profile should be sRGB IEC61966-2.1.
- Select OK.
- Choose File → Save As, select or create a folder and choose JPEG as the file type. If only JPEG 2000 is offered, close the dialog and choose File → Save a Copy instead. Give the file a meaningful name.

Your image is ready for submission through PhotoEntry.
