I'm trying to export images from photoshop via "export for web legacy" option. I need to export the images as 8inch by 10inch but can only control the pixels and there is no drop down to control for inches. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!

Use image/image size and save as a copy.

Hi @seanmcconaghy , Use File> Save As, the Export dialog doesn’t let you set a print output dimension.

Yes! This was exactly what I was trying to do, but I naturally made it more compicated than it needed to be... I always stayed away from "Save as a Copy" for some reason, and only ever used "Save for Web Legacy". Always good to engage in an hour of unecessary utter frustration haha. Thx, Stephen.

Pixels is the main measurement unit for web

you need to convert manaully from inch to pixel, 1 inch = 96 pixels

This is a big help, Mohammad - thx! Was fishing around trying to find out this precise spec for inches-to-pixels.
