I looked at the faq and technical
and wondered if there was a way to change a bunch of jpgs from
1600x1200 to 1024x768?

I want to keep the original and
reduce some for a slide show at 1024.

Thanks

The "Fit pixels" will produce a very small image on the paper if the image you have is small. If you want an image to fit the page, first check out what its size (Width/Height) in the print dialog would be when you select "Fit page" in the print dialog. Then exit the print dialog and select Transform->Size (with Interpolation enabled) and resize the image to the Width/Height values you got from the print dialog. Then go back to the print dialog and select "Fit Pixels" and print the image.  

There's no problem with OS/2 FP15. The problem (or limitation) is obviously in your OS/2 printer driver since you have no problem printing from Windows.

Thanks for all the things to try.
It was strange when I picked "fit pixels", only part of the picture was on the page. I had to uncheck the center to get the whole picture on the page.

Maybe... a little better but picture is not smooth, you can see dots. Should I try different dithers? Last try was magic square. It probably is the printer driver! Darn! They will never fix that.

I have had PMview for a long time
and love it. I just don't do printing from it. I boot into WIN95 and use Qimage to print and it does a very nice job in quality mode. When I try pmview from from OS2 and say Presentation mode and try different dithering modes, none are good. Stucki was maybe the best but in a picture that is landscape there are streaks in going across the the 8 1/2 dimension. I've always been current on the driver. Am I missing something? It is not the printer as win95 does great.
I tried comp.os.os2.apps but most people said it was the printer.
I would think not.
Any hints? OS2 FP15 can't print well? Loose nut behind the wheel?

Thanks
