Enlarge and Print

[Guest Dean]

I am wanting to enlarge (and print) a portion of a road map on my copy

machine, but the HP model I have won’t allow me to go bigger than 100%. Is

there any other way with XP to enlarge and print. I have Microsoft Office

2007. Thanks in advance for anticipated help.

I did and they said my model (J5750) doesn't have the capability to enlarge

over 100%.

Is your machine one of those multi function peripherals that allows you

to scan color images into the computer? If so, you should be able to

load the image into a bitmap graphic editor (like, but not limited to

Microsoft Photo Editor) and resize it before printing. I've found such

applications much more flexible than the "photo copier" functions that

came with my flat bed scanners.

 

Compare your paper maps to the output of services like Google Maps and

Microsoft's Live Maps too. In those you may be able to add a highlighted

driving route and/or a list of distances and street/highway names and

numbers.

Scan it to an image, crop it to the area of interest in your image

editor and then print it from Windows Picture and Fax viewer.
