Sizing printing help needed!

[mac4fam]

Hi all,

I am in desperate need of help! Bayou Mickey made me an awesome design. One for the back and one for the front of a shirt.

She even sized it correctly for me. I can see it smaller than the other one.

When I go to print it prints the full page. I looked at all my other "options" and its like 4 x6 and 3 x 5 and wallet. None of those work. It cuts it off some way.

What am I doing wrong? If someone could please help me I need to get these shirts done. They are gifts for my brother and my husband.

Thanks,
Becca

Here's what I do to print my images for iron ons.
I open a power point document, choose a blank slide, insert, picture, from file (choose the image). I can then size it to what I need. I don't always want my image to be 8.5x11, I like mine slightly smaller and for the kids designs they need to be much smaller.

BTW - Bayou Mickey is one of my favorite designers and a HE!

Let me know if you have any questions!

What size do you you usually do for a woman? I'm 5'1" and most of my designs are meant to go across my chest.

Also, an older Kid (8-9) and younger kid (5)? I'm getting close to printing myself and I want to make sure I don't waste any iron sheets.

I always first print them in black & white on regular paper, cut them out and check the size against the shirt or on me. That way I can make adjustments before I print in color on the transfer.

I wear a large and like to slightly reduce mine down from 8.5x11. My almost 5 yr old gets almost a half sheet. If you click & drag on a corner it will size the image proportionally so it's not too tall or too wide.

HTH!
