Problem with printing..
hey all,
I'm having a little problem with printing. When I print out the covers, they're just SLIGHTLY too large. I'd say that i have to crop a 1/4 of an inch all the way around. Is there a way to get around this and have it print out at the right size to fit in an amaray case?

I'm not at home at the moment so I don't know the DPI.

If you're using Microsoft Picture Viewer, which I think you are, it doesn't respect the images actual properties. I'm guessing you've got a standard resolution image of 3240x2175 @ 300dpi.
Try getting ahold of Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro or even some free cover printing software like CoverXP or the like. I typically use PSP for printing.

I will check that out. Thank you!
EDIT: After looking at the website for coverxp, i vaguely remember using it and it TOO didn't print out at the proper size. Could this be true? I'll give it another try tonight.
