I need help downloading/printing cover

I just regitered at a dvd custom cover site and downloaded the cover. When I opened up the file it came out HUGE. I made a print preview and only one half or third takes up the whole page. Also, when I tried to open it in Photoshop (as it was suggested) it came out with blue lines going up and down, left and right.

Can anyone tell me what Im doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

You need to configure you printer settings for one. A full size cover at 100% resolution will look huge on a monitor. Those blue lines you see when you open the image up are nothing more than guidelines used to center objects and will not show up when printing. If you want to remove them just click on View/Clear Guides.

Go to DVDCoverart and read the How to on printing on the site.

Should be. That's what I have. Using the correct paper is the key and somewhere in the DVDCA forum is a thread with alot of paper brand selections.
