I have a bunch of very large images taken on vacation that I want to resize to 4×6. I cropped/resized several, but when I started to print to 4×6 photo paper, the image was cropped even more on the lower and right edges- enough to ruin the composition of the shot. So I think I must have done something wrong. What is the correct procedure to resize in CS3? Is there some setting in the print dialog I missed?

If you have the correct proportion should be no issue to print it smaller for 4×6
first use crop tool
choose preset or fill in exact size 4×6 (300 res?)
is your image proportional to 4×6 ??
FILE>PRINT
in that dialog many options to resize but not crop
also you can untick center
etc
if you’re making bleed print you will get an error message from PS ignore it
hit advanced option or printer options
I have Epson so not sure about HP
in that dialog make sure to select BORDERLESS and proper paper size and orientation (portrait, landscape)
quality for print etc
why install another program to make a print??
does HP have print preview feature??
I always use that
if it is incorrectly sized you can see it before wasting ink and paper
windows will AUTO crop and print borderless 4×6 too
this is less reliable as you cannot control the crop and color profiles
go to the folder of pictures
control shift to select all or control click each to print
at left choose print these photos
then a wizard comes up
fill in size of picture you need
how many of each to print
also choose print options and fill in for HP dialog borderless and 4×6 paper done
