Help! I have asked a couple times on the DISign board...

[Disney Dider]

Have you seen the pressed penny wrappers? I am trying to figure out how to resize for the small m&m tubes. It prints out 5x5 and needs it to be 3 1/8 x 4 1/4. Can anyone explain to me how to do this? We leave Friday!

Thanks so much!

You can save images to Photobucket then resize or use your computer's Paint program to resize the images. I hope that helps.

Another option would be to resize it through the printer settings when you go to print. This is usually a percentage though so there might be some trial and error to figure out the right percentage to shrink it. Good luck and have a great trip!

Thank you. My paint is done by percentages too. I hate when the computer beats me. LOL

You could also paste the image into a WORD document, and then resize from there.

I have tried them all. Can't find a program that will size in inches, only percentages. Thanks, though.

take the size you want and divide into the size you have to get an estimate.

You want 3 inches and the picture width is 5 inches.; 3/5 = .60 = 60% or original or a 40% reduction in size.

Try 62.5 % (63 will do) x 85%
That is 62.5% of the original size or a 37.5% reduction one way and a 15% reduction the other way.

Word will let you dictate a size in inches if you can get into the properties of the image.

If you can post your image or a link to the one you want, I will resize it for you. I looked at the DISigns thread and these look like a lot of fun!
