I have been using illustrator since 1988 and I am not sure why all of a sudden this is happening. I must have clicked the wrong box or something.
I save a jpg from my psd file at 5 x 6 inches at 300 dpi.
I place it into my letter sized page in illustrator CS5 and it comes out huge. I look at the bar at the top at it says its 72ppi.
Just earlier today, it place fine and viewed like a 300 dpi file.
What did I mess up to make this happen all of a sudden.
Why is it placing at 72 ppi?
I checked InDesign and it places fine.
I place the psd file and it places fine.
But the jpg places huge at screen resolution.
I understand the difference between print vs screen resolution.
I am just wondering why is this all of a sudden happening?
Thank you for any help.
