Default Just a quick question to trow at people

When you are designing a print for a big canvas do you scale the final size by 1/4 and thats what you should make the image up to in photoshop.

e.g. A client wants a poster 12 ft by 4 ft.

If i know thats the final size do i then make that canvas in ps 1/4 that size so its 3 ft by 1 ft and 300dpi.

I read that somewhere that thats generally the practice for graphic design.

Does anyone know if that sounds right
