So, 24 megapixels, or about 6000x4000px at about 300dpi, that's a nice resolution, considered magazine photo quality nowadays.
- tdeck 8y agoI'd expect given that this is weaving the effective resolution is significantly lower. Both light and dark threads have to spend some time on top and bottom to hold the fabric together, if I understand correctly. The PDF "Basics of Jacquard Design in Photoshop" [1] seems to suggest a 6x6 "pixel".
