I have a bunch of wedding pictures my friend wants printed. I tried to print the high-quality files from my CF card, but the files were too big.
What size should I re-size them to be able to use the do-it-yourself printing machines in many drugstores?? The clerk there had no idea.
Thanks for any help!

I would size them to the physical size of the print at 240 dpi, TIFF format. Pick a few of the photos and have them printed as a test run to see how their machine handles color, contrast, etc. and then adjust your files accordingly.
Have you tried Zenfolio print services? They are fairly reasonable especially with the smaller format prints. I used them for my sons wedding last year and offered prints at base prices if anyone wanted them Several relative and friends took advantage of it. I usually get ~two day turnaround too. I was also able to produce a lovely album for Brian and Ashley as a Christmas present from Zenfolio via MPIX.
