  1. Paint not printing the same as image shown in preview


    I'm tearing my hair out with this stupid Paint app!I have a scanned image which I am trying to print- it is a copy of my till which needs replacing, so I need it to be exactly the right size or the buttons won't match up. I have adjusted the paper size to A4 and reduced the margins to zero, and set scaling to adjust to 100% normal size, when I print preview it looks perfect but when I print the image comes out bigger and part of it is off the pagePlease help!

    :)

  3. Cannot edit images when saved in Fresh paint

    Hi Kamila,

    As per the information, I understand that when you save an image drawn in Fresh Paint, you are unable to edit the image once saved.

    If the above is true, I suggest that you follow the steps below to save the image in a manner that will allow you to edit it.

    • To save your painting right click on fresh paint and click on
      Save as
      . You will get an option to select the location.
    • Select the location and save the painting.
    • When you reopen fresh paint you will be on the painting you used before closing fresh paint. If you do not get the painting, you may click on image and go to the location and select the image to edit.

    For added information on Fresh Paint refer to the FAQ below

    Redirecting

    Note: Also applies to 10

    Hope this helps

    Regards

    Lack of Print / Print Preview Menu or Icon in IE

    Hi Marcia,

    If the Print/Print preview icon is not available in your IE toolbar, then there's a possibility that the Command bar is not enabled or not added yet. To add or enable it, please follow the steps below:

    1. Open Internet Explorer.
    2. On an empty space right above the address bar, do a right-click, and select the
      Command bar option.

    Print/Print preview
    icon as shown in the screenshot below.
