Use Preview To Resize Images

Preview is a remarkable tool and one I highly recommend you check out. One thing it does for you quickly and easily is resize your images. Drag your image into Preview and select Adjust Size from the Tools menu. You can adjust your image by width, height, and resolution. You can make those adjustments based on inches, pixels, percent, cm, mm, or points. You can also adjust the color, rotate, flip, and crop your pictures. All of this without spending any extra money on imagining software.

For visual learners like myself:

After you have opened an image in Preview you can select “Adjust Size” from the “Tools” section in the menu bar.

After clicking on “Adjust Size”, a panel opens that provides resize options.
