Anyone know how to enlarge this photo so I can read it?

I had a friend get a cell pic of the work schedule for me but it came across so teeny tiny I can't read it!
Is there any way to enlarge it without distorting it? I guess I can drive the 25 miles tomorrow if not, but I'd rather stay tucked in and avoid the snow!

Have you tried opening it up in photoshop, enlarge, then sharpening?

I'm not sure it will work since that is a very small photo. Maybe the friend could take another photo or you could call him/her?

Ugh, that's a tough one. You can try enlarging it in a photo editing program (Photoshop will do as much as anything can), but it's really hard to get more detail from a low-resolution image like this. Basically, each of those tiny characters are only made of a few pixels, and the image interpolation can only do so much to add extra pixels that are actually helpful -- most likely you'll just get larger grey/black blocks as the image is blown up.

She may have sent it to you at a low resolution. On the iPhone, for example, you have a choice of emailing a photo small, med, large or actual size. So you could ask her to resend at max size and see if that works.
