Hi,
How do I save a Photoshop image in jpeg format so that when printed using something other than Photoshop, the document is printed with the correct dimensions?
I scanned a 3.5" by 2" document into jpeg format. I opened it in Photoshop CS to clean it up a bit. I started by using the "rectangular marquee tool" to copy/paste the selected area into a new Photoshop document. Because the "preset" defaults to clipboard, the width and height of my image is 3.5" by 2". If I print this document, it prints just fine (the right dimensions).
The problem is when I save the document into a jpeg format. When I attempt to print the jpeg file using Windows built in Photo Printing Wizard, it fills the 8.5" x 11" paper.
If I were to open the jpeg with Photoshop, it will again print just fine at 3.5 x 2 inches.
