Web/graphic design people

If you created an image to be inserted as a link into a webpage, you'd probably send the file as a jpg, right? Not a pdf?

I'm so frustrated with this dude and now I have to call him again. GRRRR.

Re: Web/graphic design people

  • um...yeah. Maybe he meant to make it a png?

  • As this has been a month-long process to get three identical banners of varying sizes and one with a very slight variation in text, I doubt this was just a random mistake.
  • You mean you want the image to appear ON the website? Right? Then, yes I'd use a jpeg or a png also would work well.

    If you mean there's a link on the website and it LEADS to the image, well then it can be anything. A pdf would be good if there is a lot of text. It would stay crisper than a jpeg. (I hate when clients are confusing about this kinda stuff, cause it does get confusing.) Good luck!

  • I think she was saying she wanted to use the image as the link which would mean jpeg or png, but yeah, if you're wanting a link to open the file a pdf could be better resolution*

    *assuming it's a pdf made from a vector file because nothing irks me more than someone handing me a pdf made from a bitmap file  and thinking I'm going to be able to magically make it scale with no pixelation.

  • It is an image that will used on the webpage to link elsewhere. So, a pdf is worthless.

  • Hahaha! That made me laugh. Yes, cause you know, when you make a pdf suddenly that makes it "high res" regardless of what you started off with. Image from the web? Pdf magic...POOF! Billboard ready! lol.   Confused
