I have been asked to check if an image will be usable for a billboard size graphic.
How can i check if the image will be fine?

the key would be to contact the printer of the billboard and find out what percentage and what resolution they require. for large format it can be 10% and 150dpi.

For a full size billboard pretty much anything is high enough resolution. The viewing distance is so far away and the dot screen so crude that it doesn't matter too much. If it looks good and crisp printed out at A3, its fine for a billboard.
- yeah, they look pretty funny up close. giant screen ruling.airey
- Funny, yes... I often go and have a good laugh at the billboards if I get some free time.Orbit
- People think I'm crazy, but they don't know. They never close enough to see what I see.Orbit
