I don't know what settings I need to change PLease help urgently ====================================== First...you'll need a printer that can print full bleed...(to the edge)...if you have that...read on.... Publisher shows that an A5 is...5.827 x 8.268 inches....or...14.8 x 21cm You cannot fill the page with an image without cropping unless it it the exact same aspect ratio. So...you need an image that is cropped to 5.827 x 8.268 inches or 8.268 x 5.827... depending on the orientation. The following freeware can do that for you. FastStone Image Viewer http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm FastStone's crop tool will allow you to enter a new size for cropping and you can 'Crop To Clipboard' which means you can open Publisher and paste the cropped image in your project. -- John Inzer Digital Media MVP Notice This is not tech support I am a volunteer Solutions that work for me may not work for you Proceed at your own risk |

Thank you. I have changed the paper size to A5 and the image size to A5
dimensions also, but when I do print preview it shows the page with the image cut off. Is this the same issue with the printer?
