Any of your basic photo editor programs will work. When you open it, what photo editor does it open in?

Photo shop or print shop, will the printer then print out the size I need, I tried this earlier yet it was either to small or to Large, Large size was missing areas anyay to get complete image on maybe two sheets of paper.

Do you have a copier that will enlarge? If so, print image and just use copier to get it to the size that you want. Try searching on google for a tutorial on resizing an image in the program that you have. If you can't find anything, let me know, I can do it for you and then share the steps with you. icon_smile.gif

I don't know what you have tried in printshop or how large you want it to be, but what I did on a flamingo I wanted to fit an 11x15 pan. First I had to make it a JPEG in Paint. I copied the image twice, cropped the top part on one and the bottom part on the other and enlarged it to the size of the landscape orientation and printed it in two parts. I have even taken a large photo I have and scanned it in two parts and then put it back together in Print Shop. Good Luck

If you're not familiar with graphics software, a simple trick might be to 'insert' it into a Word document, then just drag it out to the size you want. That way you can visually see how it will look on your letter/A4 size paper
