    Hi Monica.

    Just tried it on my machine with an image pasted into a word document. Right click on your image and you should get a drop-down menu. Select 'Format Picture' and look for 'Size' in the new menu. That allows you to change both height and width independently using either actual sizes or % changes.

      Hi Monica.

      It's not a solution...just an idea... ops:

      I have a shop in the big city that said me, they can print diferent pictures, directly from some "pen drive". The advantage is the different possibilities of change the size, and "where" to print the picture!! One interesting option is on a transparent "vinyl" sheet.

      Hope this help you.

        thank you Polux i do have a place close at hand called offices works maybe if i load them up , they maybe able to resize once i get one set im good just keep recopying them , its just getting

        the 1 st done as i said im no techo,

        if the setting in the print program , i could use , to resize are grayed out and that the whole problem, and with word can you inport more than 1 pic at a time ?

            Monica, Create a PDF of the print or drawing, then when printing the PDF go into the menu and you will find that you can increase or decrease the original size. Cheers Derek

                Hi Moni,

                Adobe reader is normally for reading pdf files but I think you cant make them with Adobe reader. but there are a lot of free pdf converters around the www.

                is it something special you are looking for or just a dimension change?

                I have a couple of prints on file as pdf and some I made myself. Only problem they are to big to post them here.

                let me hear if you need help.

                Cheers Richi

                  Monica, I had to buy a new computer about 2 years ago with Win 7, not mentioned anywhere in the documentation is a program called PDF Complete you will find in in the main 'C' directory under Apps. Load this and you can then create a PDF. Then using the free Adobe Reader open the PDF document you just created with the Adobe Reader and then go to the menu, select custom, and dial up the magnification/reduction you need, then print to your normal printer. Cheers Derek
