JPG's on Access form and printing

D

David

We have created a form with image controls that the user
can load JPG's into. The problem is the expansion of the
size of the form when the JPG is added. I understand that
a JPG is compressed but the problem lies when you go to
print the form, with 8 pictures on the form, the object to
get printed is 72m and many printers will not accept a
file that large to print. This is with the original size
of the JPG of 500k. If the user has a larger original, the
size of the file expands exponentially.
Any suggestions on how to handle this would be greatly
appreciated
