Resize in DPP or Elements?

Hi guys, apologies if this has been asked before, I've use the search function and couldn't find anything that quite answered my question.

That is; when I'm resizing images for print or web output etc, should I resize them when I'm in the 'Convert and save' dialogue box of DPP before I send the resized file to Elements for final PP or send the full size converted file to Elements and resize there?

My gut feeling is that Elements will have better resizing algorithms, but conversely, it will be working on a Tiff or Jpg whilst DPP will be working on the Raw file and may be less damaging therefore.

I've yet to experiment at any length between the two options, but wondered if anyone had any experience/opinions as to which would be the better option and why.

Thanks!

Depends what you are doinhg in Elements? I always resize last, whether it's in DPP or PS.

A quick tweek of levels if required followed by sharpening for the most part, unless I fancy doing something more outlandish with a shot.

I suspect that DPP does the resizing after the conversion to an RGB image, so from that point of view there is no advantage to DPP, especially if your PSE supports 16 bit tif and has Adobes's Bicubic Smoother and Sharper which may well be better than DPP's algorithm (although I don't know that from direct experience).

I always do all my editing on the full size image and save. I then resize when necessary to post.

Guess I never even thought about doing this in DPP, but I tend to keep most my images large anyhow and resize only those that require it for a specific purpose.

Use one that has lanczos3:

It uses lanzcos3. Make sure it's set to high quality. Amazing that it's free. Export from your RAW converter in TIFF, then resize to the desired jpeg size in FastStone.
