I have created a 10800x1350 canvas and split it into 10 as i am doing an insta swipeable post. 

 

When i go to export through 'save for web' i select jpg but it only lets me save at 75.85%. when i change it to 100% it shows a message saying "a value between 0.01 and 75.85 is required. closest value inserted"

 

i cant get it exported to the size i need.

 

I have latest photoshop downloaded on MacOS BigSur

 

cheers

Save for Web has a 8192px to a side limit.

Use Export As for images that are larger than 8192px on a side.

I also kept losing resolution when exporting very wide canvases from Photoshop for Instagram carousels, so I built a tiny $10 plugin that exports perfect slices every X pixels — no weird downsizing, no manual slicing.

I have the same issue using slices in PS or Ai. So what if your comp/artboard is bigger than 8192 if you're slicing it up anyway? Doesn't make sense! I have an artboard that is 1680x9960 and I'm trying to slice the tall scrollable page design into shorter files ex. 1680x2000, 1680x1000, etc. and beacuse of that silly size limit it's forcing my 1680 width to be smaller at 1382. And Exporting as image isn't a solution with a continuous background design. SLICES needs a serious overhaul - it's soo wonky. Other programs like Figma does this way better framaes/slices.

Completely agree. Is there still no solution to this?

That may fix the issue with the limitation of 75.85%, but the "Export as"-function doesn't let you export the idividual slices the same way, does it?

bumping this! would be dope to be able to export slices using the "export as" feature. Otherwise the slices tool is totally obsolete!!!

Having the same issue. Was a resolution ever found?

There's a built-in size limit in both Save For Web and Export. An 11 000 pixel file is normally unheard of on the web and I don't really understand how that could work. The load times would be measured in minutes - internet bandwidth is nowhere near up to this.

 

EDIT - missed the "split into 10" bit. You need to do that before exporting. Should be straightforward enough in Photoshop.

hi, yeah i slice using the guidelines... then export but it only lets me go to 75.85%... when i exported anyway, the final 10 individual images came out at 819x1024 instead of the desired 1080x1350

 

frustrating

If you create a canvas 10800x1350 where does the 819x1024 and 1080x1350 come from?

 

Ite sound like you what tp brake your 10800x1350 canvas image intp 10 layers with images 1080x1350 then align all to the left trim to 1080x1350 and export an animated gif with framse 1080x1350.
