I am using a Kodak DX 3500 camera and kodak loading dock for my
pictures. After downloading my pictures they are presented in a
usuable fashion. When I do another download the previous pictures go
to a file called my photos.When I try to display a photo from this
file folder or print a picture The picture is only a portion of the
original with scroll bars to display the rest of the picture. This is
also the case when I try to email a picture from this folder. My
question is: how can I display or print the entire picture?

Hi musicman,

Windows XP has a picture previewer option
that automatically resizes the image to the
screen. What operating system do you use?

There are many other programs on the net
that automatically resize oversized images
to fit on the screen for viewing AND also
allow printing. Would one of these suffice 
for you?

thanks,

I am using windows 98. I have been told that a program called acdsee might help

Hi musicman,

Yes, Acdsee would work and also L-View Pro

I personally perfer (beyond Windows XP's
functionality) Thumbs Plus for the image
manipulation I do daily at work.
[ http://www.cerious.com/thumbsplus.shtml ]


See if either of those are suited to your
problem. Try the Thumbs+ first though.

Good luck,

My guess would be you need to maximise the window. You can do this by
double-clicking the title bar, which is the bar (usually blue in
color) right at the top of the window.

my guess is that your original picture size(ie 1600x1200) is much
larger than the resolution you are running on your monitor(ie.
800x600), therefore you can only see one piece of the photo at a time
and must scroll around to see the rest.  Download an image viewer that
will 'shrink to fit' to the screen size, i like
acdsee(http://www.acdsystems.com/English/index.htm) myself, where you
can set this option in the preferences section.  Most graphic
viewing/editing software have a zoom(in or out) option. And the most
common menu symbol for this is a maginifying glass with either a - or
a + inside where the actual glass would be..hope this helps
