When I create a 5 x7 canvas, why are my pictures getting cut off?

So, I'm pretty new to Elements 12, but I do understand things about ratios and what not.  But I am still not understanding why when I create a 5 x 7 canvas, create something on it, then try to print, it either leaves space on the edges or if I do crop to fit, cuts off my image!  I am creating a completely new canvas and adding pieces to it, like text, clipart and so on.  Any help would be appreciated!

krogirl,
Check the following:
Make sure that you have the latest drivers for your printer. You can do that on the manufacturer's web site.
Make sure that the orientation of you file and the one selected in the print set-up are the same.. If you have a landscape oriented file, for example, go to File>print. In the dialog look for "Page Setup", and select landscape.
Crop to 5x7 before sending it to the printer. For paper size, try 5x7 borderless,
Please report back with your progress.

  • Why are my photos getting cut off in IOS 7?

    Hey does anyone have this similar problem that I am experiencing with the IOS 7 update. I have quite a bit of manga on my ipad and prior to the update, the photo would scale perfectly on ios 6 without any use of recroping or resizing meaning that I use the original sacling of the picture but with the recent update, I have noticed that the photos are enlarged and the scaling is off the point where the text bubbles at the top,side and bottom portion of the photo are cut off. This also only occurs in the portrait rotation and this never happened before in iso 6.  Just to clarify, this is not for wallpaper setting but rather reading manga through the photo tab. I would like to keep the original scaling as it was never a problem on ios 6 but I was wondering if anyone has a solution for this or is it just a bug that I have to wait for apple to patch through. Thank you and waiting for replies.

    It would seem that way...
    If you haven't already done so clearing caches and disabling the "Allow simultaneous downloads" option in the downloads window may help.

  • Why do i constantly get cut off on calls.  I've had this problem with my 3GS, my 4S and now my iPhone 5.  When the core functionality is Phone, i.e. the ability to talk, why can't Apple make the iPhone function as a Phone?  is there an App for that !!

    Well, since you've had the same problem, with three different phones, that all use different size sim cards, it seems pretty obvious the problem is with your carrier/coverage & nothing to do with your phone or sim card.

  • Why do my margins get cut off when I right click print, but not when I open my document and print?

    When I right click print (without opening the document) my margins get cut off, but if I actally open my pdf document and click print, it will print just fine.  This only happens when the document has print that is close to the edge.
    I am using Adobe 10.1.2 with Windows 7.
    Thank you in advance for your thoughts and help

    As for your comment on this being my first Mac, and the program issue, you misunderstood. Yes the eMac is in fact my first, personally owned, Mac computer other than the original Apple II series floppy fed PC, in which me and my father owned. The only other Apple/Macintosh computer I had experience on was my father's 13" MacBook Pro, and 20" iMac (both ran OSX Tiger 10.4.11, just as the one I have know runs). The iMac was upgraded to Snow Leopard due to our need for better picture/video/audio editing software such as that of Adobe, and the Macbook Pro was sold because of a business that was started being siphoned out of money. I purchased the eMac from a small business based off of eBay. It had the majority of OSX Tiger software, only missing minor programs like Photobooth. Other than that, it had no wireless software like BlueTooth, Wi-Fi capabilities, wireless sync, ect... But alas, when you buy a Apple/Mac computer, you must take a few cutbacks when purchasing it (even refurb.) for around $120.00 including taxing, shipping, handling, ect... I purchased nearly all of my software from co-workers and friends who had an extra key, or I would receive the software disc from them, and buy a key. The only "illegal" thing I had on the computer was music I had downloaded from LimeWire. I have never, and will never, trust any software coming from a torrent download site.

  • Why is my design getting cut off?

    Hi, I'm trying to create my first site with Adobe Muse, can anyone tell my why my design is getting cut off like this? (Plan mode and preview below:)
    Thank you!

    Thanks for the help Brad! I made the image longer than the width of my page and it seems to have fixed the problem when I preview it, but will this mess things up in the end? (see below) Thanks!

  • Why does the menu get cut off even if the project is widesrcreen?

    I made a widescreen project in iMovie, exported it to iDVD, and chose a widescreen theme. It looked fine on my computer but when I burned it and played it on my home DVD player, the words were cut off. I also noticed that when played on some TVs, my movie (although widescreen) played as full screen and therefore, cut off some of the footage. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    HOW TO MAINTAIN 16:9 ASPECT FROM IMPORT TO BURN
    This is the way I do it. There is no compulsion on you to do it my way, but this works (for me). I started this method before iMovie and iDVD were upgraded to 6.0.3, and because not all elements of the various iDVD themes (particularly the pre-iDVD 6 ones) are consistent in keeping to 16:9 throughout the process.
    The widescreen preview works just fine when you check your finished project within iDVD. The problem only happens when you either burn a project or save it to an image.
    A bug in iDVD 6, particularly when working with PAL, and which has been reported to Apple, is that the sub-menus in many of the themes (the chapter settings) default to 4:3 aspect, NTSC and mpeg 1, instead of the desired 16:9 in mpeg 2 in PAL. This may be partly a leftover from iDVD 5 or even a newer ‘feature’ of iDVD 6. Either way, it is annoying when it happens, and we must hope Apple cure it in iDVD 7. In the meantime here is my failsafe workaround, which sounds a lot more complicated when reading about it, that it is in practise.
    Living in the UK, I use PAL (25 fps). Wherever you see a reference to PAL (25 fps) in the following you may substitute NTSC (30 fps) in the various settings mentioned (if you don’t live in Europe), the basic idea is the same. I still use this method, and take these steps, regardless of whether it is always necessary. Worst case scenario: it would have worked anyway. Best case scenario: it works perfectly where it otherwise wouldn’t!
    The object of the exercise is therefore to ‘fix’ all constituent parts of the project (video, titles, theme, effects, even audio!) in the desired 16:9 aspect to avoid producing a DVD where the movie is in 16:9 and the menu is in 4:3 or where other irritating surprises lurk in your project, which you only discover after burning a coaster!
    First go to http://www.mydvdedit.com/index.php?lang=english and download myDVDedit. This is shareware although the download is free. Send the guy a few dollars/euros, he deserves it. While you are there, read all about it. Now install it in your Applications Folder. You will need it later.
    You have finished your iMovie project with music, transitions and so on, and saved it to you Movies Folder. Before you started the project you naturally set it to DV Widescreen.
    Open iDVD. Give the project a name, and save it as Widescreen if it didn’t default to the same aspect as your iMovie project. Now import the iMovie project into iDVD, choose a theme (any theme you like, even if it prefers to stay at 4:3) and save the project. Do what you would normally do to the theme and its drop zones. Save the project.
    Now save as Disk Image on your desktop. Leave it there for the moment when it has finished/appeared.
    Open your Movies Folder. Create a new folder. Name it PROJECTNAME – TS FILES (where ‘projectname’ is the name of your project!). Close the folder. You can of course call it anything you like, but this aids identification.
    Now double-click the disk image on your desktop. It contains two folders: AUDIO_TS (which is empty, but please pretend that it isn’t) and VIDEO_TS. Drag and drop these to the folder you created in your Movies Folder. (This takes a moment).
    Click on the AUDIO_TS folder and go to Get Info in the file menu. Right down the bottom is where you have to change the permissions. Under ‘Ownership & Permissions’ change this from Read Only to Read & Write. Click the small triangle next to Details, scroll down and click on ‘Apply to enclosed items’. You will be asked for your root password. Close the get info window, and now click on the VIDEO_TS folder and do the same. Close the Projectname-TS Files folder. You have now allowed yourself to change the properties of the contents of those folders, which leads us to the next all-important step.
    Open myDVDedit. Go to File and open the projectname TS Files folder. By all means stare at it shock and awe, but don’t bother finding out what it can do, except for the following:
    Top left you fill see a list of files. Lower centre you have a large window. On the vertical menu to the left of that, click te middle one (VTS or VMG).
    In the window at the top left, ignore ‘First Play’ (if there was anything to correct in that, myDVDedit will have done so and told you).
    Click on VMG Menu en (English). Now the whole thing springs to life.
    Set Coding Mode to MPEG-2 (if it isn’t already)
    Set Standard to PAL (or NTSC if that is what you want)
    Set Aspect to 16:9 (not any of the other options)
    Now save the file.
    Click on VTS Menu 1 en (English) and repeat as above.
    Click on VTS Menu 2 and repeat as above.
    You have now permanently ‘fixed’ the entire contents of the TS folder (the disk image) in 16:9 aspect. Close myDVDedit – you won’t need it again until the next project!
    If you have Toast 7 Titanium, open it. ‘Select DVD-Video from VIDEO_TS’. Choose Select from the main Toast window and select your projectname-TS Files folder. You are now ready to burn! You can set the burn speed (2x recommended) before the burn commences. Allow Toast to verify the burn before you eject the DVD-R disk.
    If you don’t have Toast 7, then I assume you can burn the projectname-TS Files folder (disk image) via Disk Utility. I say ‘assume’ only because I have never tried it that way.
    Either way, you now have a DVD which will play as 16:9 widescreen on any TV set, even the old ones where you can’t ask it to letter-box.

  • Why are prints from Preview cut off at bottom of page

    When I print a PDF from Preview the print has about 3/4" cut off the bottom of a portrait document or from the right of a landscape document.. When I print the same document from Acrobat Reader, it prints correctly. I use Page Setup before printing. The scaling in the other direction seems correct which makes the cut-off a mystery.
    I prefer Preview for PDFs as it is much faster than Acrobat Reader. The cut-off prints have caused me grief when I have not detected them. What is going on here?

    I have the same problem and can confirm it also happens in Leopard. There was traffic on a similar Leopard issue printing landscape to Windows shared printers that was fixed in 10.5.2, but it doesn't seemed to be solved for my situation (printing to CUPS shared printer). Note that it seems to be a bug in the way Preview creates a PDF for printing, since Adobe Reader works fine, and "lpr <filename>" from the command line will also work.
    If you have any more info since you posted, I would be interested.

  • Why are my song being cut off, not all just some?

    Some of my songs that I bought on itunes are being cut off when there is about 30 seconds left to the song, both on my iphone and my macbook.  I dont know why this is happening. any help would be grealty appreciated.

    Are the episodes being shortened when you publish to a local folder and launch them in the browser as well as when published to the server? See this page under "Troubleshooting"...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/iWeb-Tips.html
    If the local files are OK it would suggest the problem is on the server. Otherwise you need to troubleshoot iWeb.
    If the problem is files that are too large, you can reduce the sampling rate and/or convert to mono if the content is mostly speech rather than music.

  • Why are my pictures getting stored in duplicate or triplicate?

    Hey!
    I hope someone out there can help me. Not really that well known with my MacBook Pro and i need help. I think..
    Can anyone tell me why pictures (taken on iPhone, pic streaming is switched on) are stored in duplicate or triplicate (sometimes quadruplicate!?!) on my MacBook? Obviously i dont need four of the same picture and it eats up valuable real estate on my HD. Or will, eventually if this continues..
    What am i doing "wrong"? Is it the streaming? Then when i hook up my phone to the Mac (seldom) do all the pictures get yet another set of copies?
    Merry Xmas!

  • Why does my footage gets cut off when i drop it in the timeline?

    i preview my footage and it looks fine, but when i drop it in the time line it cuts alot off

    Hi Duncananinthebrain,
    Seems that the sequence settings you chose is not proper.
    Please right click on the clip in the project panel & click new sequence from clip. Else you can drag & drop the clip from the project panel to the "new item" icon.
    Try that & hopefully it will work.
    Thanks

  • I continually get error messages that cut me off from Yahoo Mail because someone else has logged into Yahoo Messenger. I've never signed up for Messenger so why do I keep getting cut off from Mail?

    I get the error message 4 to 6 times a day. Since I don't ever remember signing up for Messenger, I'm puzzled by the message. I can't find Messenger in my applications file (or anywhere else) so I can't delete or un-install the program.
    At first it was just an annoyance, but not it's starting to get to me!

  • Why does my video get cut off from all angles in the Program: Sequence?

    I just made a video, and after exporting it I noticed my whole video was basically trimmed down.
    It was trimmed from the top, bottom, left, and right.
    Anyone know how to fix this??
    It is also trimmed in the Program: Sequence

    What do you mean source material?
    I took some footage of me playing a video game, and I captured it using a screen-capture software (Fraps).
    The imported material was .avi clips
    I still can't get it to work guys, ill try and explain everything I did.
    1) Open Adobe Premiere Pro CS3.
    2)Click new project DV-NTSC Standard 48kHz
    3)Import a .avi Movie I captured using Fraps screen recorder
    4) Use the Set In point and Set Out point to get what material I want from my movie
    5)Drag it onto the timeline
    6) Look at my program: sequence 1, and my movie seems to be trimmed from all angles, meaning if you've ever played a first person shooter game, you cannot see the gun I am holding, but in the movie clip that I recorded earlier, you can a see the gun I am holding.
    Does this make any sense?

  • Text gets cut off when exported to PDF

    When I export my report to PDF some of my text gets cut off where it would meet the right edge of the text box by 1 or 2 letters.
    This only happens when I export to PDF through my web application or when I export it throught the Report Manager URL
    If I export it on my local copy of SSRS then it shows up fine without the text getting cut off

    Hi,
    You can set the Cangrow property of the textbox to true which allows to grow your textbox and is default for any text box unless you have changed it.

  • When i try to enlarge a photo why is it i get an exclamation point?  it's not on ever photo.  only some.

    when i try to enlarge a photo why is it i get a black screen with an exclamation point?  it's not every photo but it is many.

    The exclamation point means that iPhoto has broken the link to the original file.  Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
