Would someone be so kind as to educate me, or point me to a tutorial.
I have been reading the previous messages and I am now even more confused than ever.

I wish to resize photos so as I can print it on my canon printer either 2 to an A4 page or 1 to an A4 page. These photos are not for the web so it does not matter how big the file sizes are, the most important to me is the best quality of the printed photo.

I am using photoshop cs and start with the screen as shown and just change the 'Document Size' to 7.5 inches so as it will print on the A4 page.
Reading on this forum am I correct that I should be resizing in 10% increments down till I get to the 7.5 inches, so I resize it many times over and over again? Is there an action for CS that does that or do I just keep resizing it manually?
Do I leave the boxes ticked as shown and use bicubic and is there then a particular tool used that people use regularly to improve the quality before or after I resize the picture?

I am using the fuji s7000 camera and save in jpg ( I am not confident yet to use the raw option).

Sorry for all the qestions, if I dont ask I'll never learn.

best wishes and thanks Jane_L
