Default How do I print a "zoomed-in" picture?

I want to print a picture, but the subject is too far away. Its easy enough to zoom whilst it's on the screen but I want to print my chosen view. I have Photostudio 2000 and PaintShop Pro 7. Anyone know how I can do this using either software?

thanks

You could crop the area you want to print using the crop tool in most paint packages. This will then be the only image you have on screen.


Try to get the ratios right though, using 6x4 as your base, so that it will fit a whole page without elongation.

As lightning101 says - cropping the image is the best way but try and keep the height and width ratio's as near as possible to the original.

In Paint Shop Pro, select the crop tool from the toolbar and drag a rectabgle around the area you want to print. You can then resize the image to blow it up
