![]() Select the Selection tool or the Free Transform tool. Scale objects with the bounding box Select one or more objects. Note: For finer control over scaling, start dragging farther from the reference point. ![]() If I have to settle for sending a pixel-based file to a service bureau, such as a company that prints billboard faces, I'll send a LZW-compressed TIFF image. To scale the object along a single axis, hold down Shift as you drag vertically or horizontally. I don't recommend using pixel-based images such as PNG for large format printing work. Most companies offering large format print services can take Adobe Illustrator. For outdoor-based projects (signs, billboards) you can define a custom setting such as a 36ppi or 25ppi. For items like banners, vehicle graphics or anything else with a medium viewing distance a 72ppi setting is good enough. The 300ppi default setting is overkill for large format printing work. ![]() If you have any raster based effects present in the artwork please check your document raster effects settings. If the artwork is entirely vector-based the size of the artwork shouldn't make any difference to the service bureau doing the print work unless the artwork has a lot of raster-based live effects (such as drop-shadows, etc) baked into it.
