Resizing / Cropping

I am trying to process a batch of RAW images so that it creates 4x6 images to give to the client. I do not want them to be able to go larger than that. I know with some upsampling they could achieve larger prints, but for the standard person.....
I am currently using the Mark II and set the process to 70%, is the a more efficient way to do this?

Thanks,
Allen

  Allen,
  
  If these are to truly be 'Proofs', a better approach may be to use the QuickProof to develop Low Quality and set Resolution at 72dpi
  If 4x6 prints are what they bought then a higher resolution of up to 150dpi would give a better quality.
  Set output To Size set at 4x6. If customer attempts to push image files larger they will diminish in quality rapidly.
  
  Also may consider the Image Index tool which makes an HTML document with thumbnail of image and file name displayed underneath for getting proofs to customer efficiently.
  
  Sincerely,
  k c

  For a clarification, are you saying size to 4x6 and use QuickProof at 150 dpi or are you saying size to 4x6 and set the quality to \"High\" and use 150 dpi. I've been using the former.

  fasiphoto,
  
  If 4x6 are what they purchased, then make that the output.
  The QuickProof uses a different algorithm built for time efficiency Vs. the algorithm used in the Process Tool which is for Image Quality.
  The QuickProof tool seems appropriate for what you want, but You should test to see what you like and have confidence in. Your method sounds good, but if there are still concerns that they may be too good an image for larger than a 4x6, then try bringing the Resolution down even further.
  
  Consider also putting your watermark on the images as well.
  
  Sincerely,
  k c

  Yeah, I think I just need to do a few tests. 150dpi could probably produce a pretty decent 5x7, a size I'm not too concerned with though no sense in giving them more than what they pay for. They should be buying the full size file. I probably should be using 125dpi. I'll let you know. Thanks.
