| NOTE: The two images below will help
you understand the relationship between the standard
proportion of a file (short side relative to long
side) and its effect on your fnished print. A file's
normal proportion is @ 66% -- that is, the short side
is 66% of the long side. This proportion prints almost
exactly to the 3 1/2x5, 7x7 and an 11x 14 print sizes
without any cutting off the side of the print. However,
the 8x10 proportion is 80% -- and, therefore, when
you print the 66% proportion to an 8x10 some of the
image is lost. Note below this loss of print on the
left and right side. |
5x7 Proportion
The "X"ed red areas on the left and
right will be lost on an 8x10 print. See below.
|
|
8x10 Proportion
Notice how an inch has to be cut off the left
and right hand side of the 5x7 image to accomodate
the 80% proportion of an 8x10.
