Resizing photos to fit new space

J

Jim Asbury

I want to resize a photo to fit in a new space and it doesn’t fit with the
photos’ original dimensions. I then go and check with Publisher’s “design
checker†and it indicates it doesn’t fit the desired space. I’ve tried, but
failed to resize the photo multiple times only to have the same message
appear. What can I do to correct the photo’s size problem?

No, It's for a printed brochure where I have 9 photos grouped together three
across and three high. Between them I'll have a thin black line. My problem
is all photos are of different sizes in their original format and they need
to be all the same size in the brochure with the same resolutions.

If they don't all have the same proportions, you'll have to do some cropping
to make them the same size.

============================
JoAnn is absolutely correct.

FWIW...the following freeware
has a good crop tool.

FastStone Image Viewer

Create a nine cell table. With your cursor in a cell, fill, fill effects,
picture tab, browse to your picture, check the *Lock picture aspect ratio*. When
you are finished inserting the pictures, select the table, lines, more lines,
click the grid preset, select the line weight and color.
