Resolution Issues

[Anonymous]

Hi! I started using Sketchbook on my Samsung tablet (Tab 3) and I wanted to make my designs into stickers!  I downloaded the Sketchbook tablet version on my laptop (running on Windows 10), and I can't figure out how to import my designs onto my computer in order to adjust the dpi & resolution so my stickers won't have blurry images!

I tried just saving the images and adding them to the canvas, but when I make the resolution what it should be, the pictures get blurrier.  I'm very new to digital art, so any help is appreciated! 

I've already done over 30 designs before deciding what to do with them, just a fun activity to learn the app.  I'm worried I'll have to draw them again on my computer in order for them to be at the optimal resolution for a 2-3 inch sticker. 

Thanks!!!

Try to work in the largest resolution as possible on your tablet.  Please note that the larger the canvas, the fewer the undo's you have.  You can see this when you create the canvas.

When creating a canvas, I would use this as a tool to help you create the size of it.

NOTE:  8.5 x 11 @ 200 DPI should be good but the higher the better but it may make the file bigger or the canvas on Windows a bit slower.

When you are on Windows, you can use the free version of SketchBook here:  www.sketchbook.com/thankyou.  

To create a new canvas, you can follow the resolution steps here:

To move a file from Tab (Android) to Mac/Windows:  All your sketches are in .tiff format on the Android device and should be in the /Autodesk/SketchBook3 folder.  See:  Step 9 here:
