Future versions of Photoshop will either have to add an option for upscaling graphics (like Photozoom Pro) or do evaluation on the image type since this is pretty unusable. It has very sharp edges all around, even at the sharp miters. The Blow Up 3 one is much better, but the Photozoom Pro upres is definitely the best. The Photoshop Preserve Details’ local contrast is a real problem here since it’s adding a halo that affects the logo’s uniformity. This is where the other apps do a good job of handing Photoshop its ass. Here's another nasty scenario that I often see: a GIF from a company’s site is the only thing they have to use for a print logo. Before we get to the examples, check out the new Image Size panel, which has a preview pane for how your resized image will look: You don’t need to explicitly select this one for images that are increased in size, but you can. If you scale images in Photoshop, whether up or down, it picks the best algorithm by default.

I have been asking for a new upres algorithm in Photoshop for a while now, so I’m happy that it finally came to Photoshop CC. If you’re looking for a comparison of those apps, I wrote a review of Blow Up 3 for Macworld a couple years ago.

I also have done a lot of large-format printing, so I have a ton of experience with upres programs like Alien Skin Blow Up, Perfect Resize (formerly Genuine Fractals), and (my favorite) Photozoom Pro. I direct art for magazines where some of the images are from very non-ideal sources like film stills or low res camera snapshots that simply have to be used. Unfortunately, we often don’t have any choice in these matters. While amateurs frequently have no idea that jacking up a 72-PPI image to 300 is as dumb as it gets, no professional likes to blow up images beyond 25 percent. Better image up-scaling algorithm and scale preview
