How to resize an image in Adobe Photoshop

In this tricks we will teach you with the trick to resize an image in Adobe Photoshop. Image re-sizing is done when its pixel information is changed. One thing you should note is the difference between image scaling and image resizing in Adobe Photoshop.

In scaling, the resolution is not adjusted to best suit the new size, rather the pixels are stretched and can appear pixelated, which is a common side effect of scaling, although in re-sizing that’s never an issue. (Resize an Image)

About Adobe Photoshop: (Resize an Image)

Adobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor developed and published by Adobe Inc. for Windows and macOS. It was originally created in 1988 by Thomas and John Knoll. Since then, the software has become the industry standard not only in raster graphics editing, but in digital art as a whole.

The software’s name has thus become a generic trademark, leading to its usage as a verb (e.g. “to photoshop an image”, “photoshopping”, and “photoshop contest”) although Adobe discourages such use. Photoshop can edit and compose raster images in multiple layers and supports masks, alpha compositing and several color models including RGB, CMYK, CIELAB, spot color, and duotone.
