QTR-Quadtone RIP

On Dec 19th, Roy gave the the following reply to a question about JPEG sizing problem.

"This sounds like an issue that happens with some JPGs. Different
programs store different info
for sizing and this can confuse the situation.

So if you are using JPGs the best thing to try is to switch to TIF files."

Roy

It sounds like what you are finding too.
Hope this helps.
