    Sorry, can please be a little more explicit on what you want to do and where.

    There are various places that the size can be specified like Edit -> Preferences -> Units. If you are referring to the ruler in the editor then you can right click on the ruler and select the units you want.

    If you are trying to resize your image using Image -> Resize -> Image size you should be able to select pixels there if Resample Image is checked.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the quick reply. Here is what I am working with (attached). I

    cannot get document sizes to change to pixels. PS Element 9 is the

    program. I know they change, because my computer broke and this is a new

    one. But on the old one someone showed me how to change it and I've tried

    to remember what they said, but it's not coming to me. I appreciate any

    help you can give me.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    Are you referring to the New document dialog?

    You can get that when you want to start a new job File -> New -> Blank file

    Note that the resolution is the relationship between pixel dimension and unit size.

    e.g. 200 pixels at a resolution of 100 pixels/inch is 2 inches

    Please see the following to help you show us what you see.
