I have digital images that were cropped to 5x7 and 8x10 dimensions when processed. If I want to print an 11x14 or 16x20, do I need to resize them to get the best quality? Can you recommend the best way to do that? I use Photoshop Elements. Thanks

I would go back to the originals and start again. You can resize these. What size are the images in pixels (check the size). this will determine the quality you'll get by resizing.

Are you starting with RAW files or JPGs?
