Im still fairly new to a Mac having been a Windows PC user for years. I certainly like what I’ve seen so far. Reasonably competent with Photoshop CS3 and have loaded Mac version.
Main printer is Epson R2400 but also use Canon Pixma iP8500 and both worked fine with PC.
I had a number of CS3 files set up in a folder on my Windows PC and copied these on to my Mac. Some involve an image of 7.5" x 5.5" centred (on A4 canvas) and then framed by a thin 1px border of 10" x 8". These are for a particular task I perform and they need to be like that. Also have a lot of straightforward images in folders where I resize them to say 12" x 10" and then print out.
All seem to print out larger than I’m telling them to do. For example, the images with the 1px border of 10" x 8" print out about 0.25" bigger. This isn’t a huge problem with the other images but the 1px bordered ones need to be exactly the size I specify (apart from it frustrating me that it won’t do what I ask!). What I’m doing is to reduce the scale to about 98% and then it comes out near enough to what I want.
Anyone have any tips?
Thanks,
Bob
