Just wondering if someone can tell me what the best resolution to save a JPEG in Adobe Photoshop is if sending to a high quality printer and need a very high quality print.  I will be using this print in my porfolio.  Thanks!

For the highest quality use number 12.

If your printer requires the JPEG format you have no choice, but most photographers producing portfolio prints would use the TIFF or PSD file formats, insofar as they conserve far more image information and avoid the risk of lossy compression.

I would suggest 300dpi or better.
