Providing photos on CD/DVD?

[DepthOfField]

If you provide the customer Hi-Rez versions in JPG format do you resize them to match the print size? Like giving them one set @ 240DPI 4x6 another set resized for 240DPI 5x7 and so on or do you just give them a hi-rez @ full size and let them resize it.

That sounds like a lot of work... If it's just the digital negatives they have bought, I just give them the unedited raw files which they can do what they want with. I only edit the files I actually print, or deliver ... usually the CD is just the junk that they didn't really need, or was the 'B-Pool' of images...

Really it depends on the purpose of the CD/DVD.. why are they getting it, and how much are you charging/image?

Wow.. that's a pretty odd exchange... Unless you know then as friends or something, I think you're giving way too much away.

Why don't you ask your clients. This way you'll know what they'll be printing at
