I'm printing a bunch of photos today using 8.5X11 paper (with border). I tested one print and it's cropping the top and bottom slightly. I checked my image size in Photoshop and shows the following settings:
Pixel Dimension is 2000 pixel (width) and 3008 pixel (height). Document size is 8.333 inches (width) and 12.533 inches (height). The following are checked: Scale Styles, Constrain Proportion; Resample Imege (Bicubic).
My questions:
(1) Do I simply change the Document Size's height to 11 inches? If so, wouldn't that change the size of the width too because of the Constrain Proportion being checked?
(2) If I uncheck the Constrain Proportion and change the Document Size to 11 inches, will that make my photos look weird?
(3) Using 8.5 X11 paper, can I print 8X10 to match my matboard? If so, what settings do I need to do or do I just tell the paper to print 8x10 (as if I'm putting in an 8X10 paper but really putting in an 8.5 x 11 sheets)?
Thanks.

2000x3000 is 2:3 ratio and it will print to 4x6 , 8x12
if you want to print to 8x10, crop the picture in 8x10 ratio ( or 4x5 or any mutiple)

| I don't have Photoshop at work, but I have Elements. There should be a 'scale to fit media' button somewhere on the print dialog box. This will scale the picture to the largest available for the paper you have chosen. |
