Hi,

If I try to print directly from the printer icon in the image gallery I
can only print part of it. Click on

http://www.fgmoto.org/gallery.asp?pageid=226

choose any image and try and print it from the printer icon.

About only the top left quarter is printed.

Now if you choose to save it and then print it from Windows it works OK.

Has anyone solved this? Am I doing something wrong?

TIA

Hi Pepe!
I believe that it has to do with the size of the picture as it relates to
the pixel density -- i.e. the higher the resolution of the picture, the
larger the printed image -- therefore you only get a portion of the print.

I have had the kind of problem you describe with a number of applications.

Electos actually creates a thumbnail image at the height/width specified and
displays that... so if you upload an 800x600 image and put it in a 80x60
image, Electos creates a thumbnail of the image that fits the 80x60 size. It
retains that image (like cache) and if the image is requested again at the
same size... it loads the one it already had. That functionality is built
into the Gallery.

Thanks for the answers; but, is there a solution?

When I've run into something like this I've used one of the "picture"
programs I have and resized the photos -- usually starting by reducing to
50%. Might be worth a try.
