I’ve taken a picture that I would like to send as an email attachment. I’ve resized the photo and reduced it such that it prints out completely on an
8.5 x 11 " sheet directly from Photoshop Elements 2.

EMAIL… When I try to send that same photo over the internet.. and print it from an email.. that same photo is larger than the sheet and is incomplete when printed.

Web Page… I’d like to take that same resized picture and reduce it further to place on a web page but can’t seem to figure how to reduce the size so the picture on the web page is about 4 x 6"

Any help here?

Thanks, Bill

That you are using email is irrelevant. That you are probably using a format that has no support for printed size is.

That’s because there is no way of making such a measurement.

If my 21" screen is set to 800 x 600 pixels, an image 4 x 6 is far fewer pixels than someone who has their 17" monitor displaying 1600 x 1200.

Any help here?

Acrobat. It’s the only standard I’m aware of that will preserve printing size and display in a browser.
