How can I take a company logo, blow it up, and make it clear to read in a powerpoint presentation?
I have Photoshop 7 but can't make it clear enough to read when blown up at a reasonable amount.

A few things that everyone should know, especially if you are working with a designer on a project. -It is always easier to shrink something than enlarge it (you can't make more pixels from nothing) -Always start with a large image and shrink to fit your desired size (especially if you are going edit it first) -For *most* print jobs the original image should be 300 dpi -For logos, you should always have a vector (.eps) file of it if possible Now, for your presentation, I'm guessing you are working with what you have. The best you can try is to go to Filter > Sharpen (good luck, it doesn't do that great of a job, and the larger you go from the original size the worse it will be). Hope that helps, and sorry for the rant, but I get this all the time...

Vector images can be resized without degradation, raster (bitmap) images can not. "What's our vector, Victor?" "What's our clearance, Clarence?" Sorry, it's Friday, and if I didn't type it, I'd have it in my head all afternoon (kinda like with a song) . . .

Actually my wife is the one doing it. She is at work in a meeting and asked if I can try. I don't know if she obtained permission or whatever for the use of the logos. I am sure she did because it is being used for a big presentation with a big national bank. The companies are NCR, Sun Microsystems, Bellsouth, and Hitachi.
