Tip: How do I calculate the resolution you must use for scanning a photo? Increase the scanning resolution above 300dpi by the same percentage you will be enlarging the original photo.
For Example: Photo size = 2 x 3 inches Image layout size = 5 x 7 inches 5/2 = 2.5 (you will be enlarging the photo 2.5 times, or 250%)
Q: Can you explain the difference between RGB and CMYK formats?
A: RGB refers to the primary colors of light: (Red, Green and Blue), that are used in monitors, television screens, digital cameras and scanners. CMYK refers to the primary colors of pigment: (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black). These are the inks used on the press in "4-color process printing", commonly referred to as "full color printing".
The combination of RGB light creates white, while the combination of CMYK inks creates black. Therefore, it is physically impossible for the printing press to reproduce colors exactly as we see them on our monitors.
Q: Why is it important that I set up my file in the CMYK format?
A: You should be the one to convert your colors from RGB to CMYK. By doing it yourself, you have maximum control over the results. You may notice a shift in color when converting from RGB to CMYK. If you do not like the appearance in CMYK, it is recommend that you make adjustments while working in CMYK (usually lightening will help achieve your desired look.) Generally, you should specify CMYK color builds that look a little lighter than you want, since the dots of ink "fatten up" on press, giving you more pigment on paper than you see on your monitor. Be especially careful to keep backgrounds light if there is black or dark colored text over it, so that the text remains readable.

If you need to enlarge anything larger than 300% it is best to contact your local service provider for a professional scan.
