I'm used to working on small screens for artwork but as I want to take my digital art a little more seriously I'd like to buy a decent tablet. I often see professionals with large tablets (around A3 size) to make sure that their work can be printed on a large scale at high quality… But I would much prefer working on a smaller screen, around the size of an iPad mini or maybe a little bigger.
I was thinking if I used Adobe Photoshop for example, if I simply adjusted the canvas size to A3 (And obviously worked on it zoomed out to fit the whole thing on my smaller screen), if the picture would be able to be printed out at A3 in high quality and non pixelated. It seems like a simple enough idea to me, but I'm not sure if it would work or if problems like lagging would arise because of this.
Any ideas, experience or information is appreciated. Thank you.
