Re: Scale to fit question

2007-12-22 by fredila2

Hi Roy,

I think I see the problem.  I am creating a print file through 
Qimage.  I specify the paper size (17x22) and then place multiple 
small images on the page.  Then I "Print to File".  The resulting 
file is the one I load into QTR where I set the paper size to 17x22. 
So, I guess QTR assumes I'm trying to print a 17x22 image (which it 
is) on a 17x22 sheet of paper and says "Image Does Not Fit".

Unless there is some setting in Qimage or QTR that overcomes this 
problem, I suppose I can simply ignore the "Image Does Not Fit" 
message and go ahead and print.  Is that correct???

Fred
