Hi,

I have a jpg file with a dimension of 5100*3300.

Is there any way to reduce it to, for example, 2732*2048?

Hosun,

5100 x 3300 > 2732 x 2048 will change the proportions and therefore distort the image.

If you wish to end up with 2732 x 2048 which is about 4:3 you may cut off in the side(s) to 5100 > 4400 (or 4402, the latter a wee bit more accurate) and scale down from 4400 x 3300 to 2732 x 2048; you can do that easily in the Transform palette by simply setting the W and H values, then Export at 72PPI or (Legacy) Save for Web (where you can check in the Image Size window).

Remember to Export/Save for Web from integer X and Y values (artwork/Artboard).

For my part you are welcome, Hosun Kang.

Jane masters both applications and knows almost infinitely more than I about PS, which is generally far superior for work with raster images, so also good to learn.

Hosun (or 강호선 Kang Hosun, I believe),

My suggestion is a way to do it with AI instead of PS; we are in the AI forum.

OK, I got it.

Jane started the discussion with Ps.

I was thinking you are developing the discussion on Ps.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your kind reply.

Would you tell me where the Transform pallete is?

I am a novice to Ps.

There are several errors. All about image files.)

Hi

One way is to go to the Window menu, where "Transform" is listed alphabetically with the other panels.

Hi

Do you have Photoshop? If so, use Image > Image size with Bicubic Sharpen (Reduction). Make a copy first; resize the original. In Illustrator, you can drag place instead of click the image, which will also change the effective ppi.
