Resize and print a large image in a report

A current project I'm working requires that a "report" be printed out for every "part" produced.
Each "part" is photographed and a high quality (large) .jpg file is
generated and cataloged on the hard drive. A report with this
image is then printed and shipped with the product as part of a QA
process.
Initially I used a command line argument to have Irfanview print the
image only. This was so easy. Even printing in Landscape
was simple. Of course then I realized I would probably need a
little more information than just the image.
Looking at some examples of report generation and reading some of the
problems others have had in the past, I figured it might be good to ask
before I go stumbling around in the dark.
The original images are 2288x1712 in size.
Is there any way to auto resize an image to "fit" onto a printed report?
The only way I can think to do is to experiment with different sizes
until I find something that fits and looks alright, then use either
IMAQ tools or an Irfanview command to resize the image before appending
it to the report.
If anyone has any tricks for this one, I'd love to hear them.

Here, but like I said, it's a very stupid VI. It doesn't do any avareging or smoothing and it has no mathematical optimization (assuming that there is any). It just removes some of the elements. This has been good enough for displaying images, but might not be good for anything else, because you lose a lot of details.
Try to take over the world!

Print a large image from browser on one page

How can I print a large image that is generated by one of my servlets in a response page on one single paper page, (e.g A4 format). When I choose to use Print from Internet Explorer or Netscape the image is printed on 3 pages. Any stretch that I tried with Javascript does'n work. I dont want to use a plug-in. Can this be done with an applet or other way?
Thanx for any answer
Dan

So you are asking "How can I take an image in my browser and shrink it to fit on a single page?" This has nothing to do with JSPs, of course, because once the image is in your browser the JSP or servlet is long gone. What I usually do is to save the image to a file, then I use the (Kodak) Imaging for Windows accessory to load that file and print using the "Fit to Page" option.

Zooming, scrolling and moving in large images

I'd like to create a document viewer that works like Google Maps or Safari. Basically the "image" of the document is so big that I only want to load parts of it when the user actually goes over to that part of it.
How can I enable zooming, scrolling and moving in "large" images like that?
I looked for a tutorial or sample code, but I wasn't able to find anything.
Any help would be appreciated,

I have 4 Gbyte of RAM. I tried to close every applications but the problem remains. You are right about Web Browser problems but unfortunately my problem is related with Finder windows too. I have 800 Mbyte of free RAM.
Another fact I can say to you is that when I move Finder window (or other windows as I wrote before) the area outside the border of the window is repainted not well with puzzle effect. I think the problem is related to desktop refresh and repaint. It seems that graphic acceleration doesn't work for some window!!!!

Resizing and Printing a bufferedImage.

I have a bufferedImage , and I was wondering if somebody could supply me with a method to resize it to the paper size and print it out with out asking the user anything. Except are you sure you want to print? This would be of great help!

Use AffineTransformOp.
Here is my code
//create an affinetransform (methods to set scale and rotation - I'm setting values directly)
AffineTransform image_at=new AffineTransform(Trm[0][0],Trm[1][0],Trm[0][1],(Trm[1][1]),0,0);
//make an imageOp
AffineTransformOp flip= new AffineTransformOp(image_at,hints);
//apply the opt to current image and put result in temp_image
temp_image=flip.filter(current_image,null);

How do you print one large image onto multiple smaller sheets?

For example, I want to print one 17x22-inch image onto 2, 8.5x11-inch sheets.

I think you have your calculations wrong. It would take four sheets of paper to have the same size image because you have to double in both directions. I think printing an image on multiple pages is a function of the printer. If your printer has that capability then the options will be in the printer driver. Otherwise, I guess you could try to create virtual copies and crop each one individually and print them and hope they match up.
My printer does not have that capability, so I'm not familiar with how it would work. But it might be necessary to print outside of Lightroom in order to me that feature function properly. If it sounds like I don't know what I'm talking about, that's probably because I don't, really.

Resizing and Printing a .svg File

I have a svg file that's a map that I downloaded from OpenStreetMap.com.
What I'd like to do is divide map into sections, rearrange them and then increase the size of it up to 6 feet in diameter and print it.
Is all of this possible to do with an svg file?
And if so, what tools do I use? Do I use the Scale Tool? Or resize the Art Board.
Any help or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Chris,
When you bring vector artwork into Illy, you may use the tools on it, so it should be possible. Why not try?
Exactly which tools are usable/suitable depends on the actual structure and upon the desired appearance; and how little/much work you are willing to put into it.

My print preview constantly shows and prints a 4x6 image even when I'm in everyday printing and, even after I have manually entered 8.5x11 it will still act as if it's in photo mode.

Why can't I get my print program to show anything but a photo 4x6 image (and print that) even when I am in "everyday printing" and even when I manually enter a 8.5x11 paper size?

Changes to Printer Properties settings need to be done through Firefox, not the global printer settings.

Showing dynamic and unknown number of images in SSRS report

I am using SSRS 2008. I need to display an unknown number of unspecified images on the report.
Basically I have a webpage, where the user selects a specific ID (ex. 24) from a dropdown and then click "View Report".
The report should then display any images, associated with that ID. The only thing I know about the images, is the path to where the images are stored. The path is kept in a database, so I should be able to retrieve the path ok.
But then how do i get the report to display the images, when I do not know the name or number of images?
Please help.

Hi dukie4lif,
According to your description, you have a report to display images selected by users. Now your issue is, the users select a specific ID to get images, but you only have the path of images stored in your database. Is my understanding correct?
For your requirement, if the users want to get images by selecting a specific ID, this ID must be stored in database and associated with the path of those images. Otherwise the database can never query any records with this ID if it doesn’t have any ID stored.
Now we need to go to your database, create one more table or add one more column in the table which have your path stored to store those IDs, and let them associated with those path. Use a parameter in this report for users selecting IDs. Then your goal will
be achieved.

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Can we resize and change the background image in a 2 page layout?

I am a two page layout report in RTF. Can I use different background image on page 1 and page 2? The first page background will not be repeated but the second page will. Also, it seems when we insert a background image by going "Format -> Background -> Fill effect -> Picture", after we finished the whole process we can't get the background image to fit with the page, can we resize it to be fit with the page? Thanks for your help!

Yes. Select the image and go to the Inspector/Hyperlink/Link pane and use the Link to One of my Pages option.
Remember: the photo must be added to the page by dragging it onto the page and then be selected. It can't be added as a background image with the Inspector/Page/Layout pane.

Acrobat 9 - hyper link issue and print in larger font

I am using Acrobat 9 and have two issues :
When I try to convert a web page to pdf file i.e. through the print command in FF, the text links are there in the new file but without the underlying hyper links ?
How can I print the files with a larger font. It is okay for seeing it on monitor but too small for me when I print.
thanks.

Do as AbhigyanModi suggests or use the Adobe Acrobat plugin that should be in your web browser if you're using Internet Explorer. This happened because you "printed" to convet to PDF. You have to use either AbhigyanModi method or use the Internet Explorer plugin to save active hyperlinks.
In terms of the font size -- You can set up the web capture preferences first. Explore the menu that AbhigyanModi suggests or use the built in help. It's there for a reason.

How do I get AI to print a large image across multiple sheets of paper?

I'm pretty innexperienced with AI newer than a decade ago. Anticipating that the software would be able to print Artboards as sheets, I created my image to cover more than one artboard.
I've read various related help topics and I still can't get one image to print over multiple sheets without space between: i.e. borderless.
I begin by choosing a 8.5 x 11 borderless in media but it still prints with a border even with "Don't scale" or "Fit to Page" turned on.
I tried tiling with some trepidation because it requires "Ignore Artboards" to be on and wants to reorient the paper the other way if on auto-rotate. If I specifically specify landscape orientation that seems to fix the problem except for one thing: it still prints with borders! If I tile "Imageable Areas" which seems silly since the printer is perfectly capable of printing borderless, it will have to scale the image down a bit, which I don't want.
There are settings for "bleed" and "overlap" but those don't seem to be what I'm looking for and I don't need to waste more ink.

Try using the document setup from the file menu. You can set up the artboards to any size you want and cal include a negative gutter which will meant that with proper spacing you can get the file to print with the needed overlap and not have to use the borderless setting. Most borderless printers actually expand the print 1 or 2 percent to make sure that it goes beyond the paper. You might not want to do that.

Why cant i print a large image on my 750c plus

I have a HP750c Plus plotter and I am trying to print plans of a vehicle that is just over a meter long. I have selected the roll option and the hieght fits the paper at 24", however I am unable to select the length to print the complete plan in one go.
I have tried custom size but again it will not allow me to select that option.
can anyone help with advice or info on how to overcome this matter. I am working on an XP machine.
Cheers Tony

Tony, I was able to work with one of these printers just a little bit ago, and here is what I found. First it depends on the program you are using and how it assigns the dimensions to the job. Genenerally when you go to print you can choose under printer preferences the dimenstions you want to print on under "Customize" for the paper size. This will let the printer know the length you want to print to.
Just to check, what is the specific program you are using?
Let me know if this helps!
