Reducing Image Size

With our network and printer set up, the printers are unable to print a file size that is too big.  A file size is different to the actual size, which can easily be changed by dragging the corners.  To actually reduce the image size is a little more detailed. 

If you want to be able to print, or publish pictures on the Internet by reducing image size, please read and use the attached Word 2003 file.
