Hello all,
I am new to this forum, and also relativly new to digital photograghy. I have a Digital Rebel and of course along with the camera came Elements 2.0. My question is. How do I use the crop tool so that when I am selecting my pixels the ratio of the rectangle matches the ratio of the particular media print, i.e. 4×6, 5×7 or letter. I know there is a with and heigth adjustment in the tool bar above, but this seems a rather tedius way of selecting your print size, plus when I do change the dimensions for letter size it always reverts back to a different size. I usually select print preview and then go into my printer’s properties to select the size medium I am using but still end up with a picture that does not print on the whole paper. I have also tried to check the "scale to fit" box and it seems not to help. I have a Canon i9100 photo printer.

Thanks in advance,

Mark Ortega
