How to go about using an extremely large psd file

Recommended Posts

I have a client that needs an 8'x4' banner printed and he sent me a file that is .psb because it was made in actual 8x4 dimmensions.  I can't convert it to a pdf and its to large to open in illustrator so what do I do? I normally go the route of 4over but I cant seem to find a way around this.

 

Thank you!

A .psb is what you get when you edit a smart object in Photoshop.

a psb is also for a very large photoshop file

If anyone is able to print from a .psb file, I will gladly just use you for the banner then.

Why not just ask him to send you the file again in a format you can use?

Can't you open the file in PS and convert the smart objects and then save file as psd or pdf?

He doesn't have any vector programs so he would end up going to someone else.

I have not tried this, I will look into it and see if its possible.  Thank you for the suggestion
