Resizing
You can resize your image to make it larger or smaller, or
change its shape. Follow these steps:
NOTE
When you enlarge a picture, you may lose some details from the
original. To retain image quality, increase a picture’s resolution
before enlarging it (Windows only); see page 7-5 for instructions.

Open the picture you want to edit. See page 6-2 for
instructions.

Select

from the Image menu. You see the Resize
Options dialog box:

The size of the original picture is displayed on top. To
change the measurement units, click the

drop-
down menu and select

,
inches
, or
cm
(centimeters).

Enter a new width and height for the picture.
To preserve the width and height proportions of your
original picture, leave the
Preserve Aspect Ratio
checkbox checked. To change the picture’s proportions
to the width and height you specify, click the checkbox
to uncheck it; this may distort your picture.

. The picture in the window changes to reflect
your selection. (You may need to resize the picture
window to see the entire image.)
If you preserved the picture’s aspect ratio in step 5, the
new size may be adjusted from the size you entered to
keep the proportions the same.
(If you change your mind about the edit, select
Undo
from the Edit menu.)

To save your edited picture, see page 6-3 for

you want to save the original picture as it was.
