Printing from PSE3 Organizer

[Shari]

Hi - I cropped a portion of a photo to 4 x 6 as a birthday gift for someone. I printed the photo and unfortunately it shows about 1/16th inch of white on either side when putting it in the frame. I tried another 4 x 6 frame but the same thing happened. Is there a way I can make or print the photo a tiny bit larger? There is a custom print but that says 3.5 x 3.5. Can I redo this photo with a small canvas around it. The problem is it is only the sides that show the white. The photo is head shots of two people. I have done it in sepia tones so the white does show. Any suggestions please. I need this for Friday. Thanks,
Shari

Shari,
Print from Editor. You can make it any size you want... :)

Hi Shari,

I am not sure of all your details (Printer, other, etc.), but is this a possibility....?

Take your photo from the Organizer to Standard Edit.
Resize by Image/Resize/Image Size. Make your adjustments, if necessary.

Next, in Standard Edit, File/Print. With my printer I would set the Image Size at 5.99 x 3.99, set at borderless with appropriate dimensions, etc., check the orientation, and print.

I will watch your progress in the Thread.

Thank you guys - but - I tried printing from Editor and increasing the size a little. The photo came out exactly the same size as the other one. My printer an early HP Photo Printer does not have the option of borderless printing or that would be great. I really like this printer because it has such big ink cartridges and does a good job so have held off getting a new one. This is the first time I have printed a photo to frame. I have always done them for cards before and the size didn't really matter as I have a paper cutter. I will try to think of something or get another frame. Thanks again.

Ok - it worked this time. Decided to add a warming filter to the photo and resized and printed and it worked - who knows why - but thanks.
