Title: Image Size Difference In Print Preview
Post by: russellsnr on July 25, 2022, 11:33:36 AM
Hi, sorry if been asked before but struggling a little with what is to be printed.
Have the paper size correct but don't think that is the problem.
Every time I place an image to be printed although it shows correctly in the thumbnail view in the main view it gets partly cut off.
I have used the Crop Prints option in QIU but that then looses the area (in my case that the birds are looking into).
Any advice please?
Thankyou,
Russ.

Hi Russ,
Hard to be sure what you are doing, but I think you invoked the auto crop, which is fine. But usually, the result needs adjusting.
I usually go into PRINT editor, and click the cropping tab. Select the image with a click on the big image and the same image will appear in the top right corner. Now you can use the mouse to slide that image in the box to a better view. The ig image will adjust to what you did.
Hope that helps.
Fred

Just to add to the wonders of Qimage, let me mention a sort of semi obscure feature.
At that same little box that you woudl slide the image around, you also have a vertical slider that enlarges the subject for you.
See the screen snaps and notice the slider and the result of using it.
