: 19" PSD printed as 19'...Where did I go wrong? I'm in the early stages of designing a silk screen for a product panel. I threw together a mockup in Photoshop so I could tape it on top
I'm in the early stages of designing a silk screen for a product panel.
I threw together a mockup in Photoshop so I could tape it on top of a current plate panel and present it to the decision makers (they're very much "print people").
Brought my PNG into Staples to get it printed. I told them that the print size was 19" x 3.5". They asked if that was the size of the document, I told them it should already be at that size.
When I went to pick it up, it was 19 feet instead of 19 inches wide.
Questions
Did I do something wrong here? (Other than having Staples print my work)
Do inches in Photoshop translate to feet in print?
How can I improve my workflow to prevent this issue in the future?
PSD information
Image size = 19" x 3.5"
PPI = 400
PNG information
Image size = 7600px x 1400px (same as PSD)

I do not understand how you rely on " or '. Simply use the word "inches".
It has nothing to do with your document, but a human error*. An operator can simply assign any unit when printing. Meters, feet, inches, centimeters...
(I am not sure who's human error was this. Provider or yours. Probably both. Take a look at your order and see what dimension and price are stipulated.)
