I think Word generates a thumbnail, but I'm not sure. The image should be
sized using some imaging program such as irfanview (www.irfanview.com) or if
you don't care about the actual size of the image in terms of bytes, you can
resize it proportionately in the image tag of the HTML IMG element by
specifying height and width.

IE7 introduces a "shrink to fit" aspect in printing that also applies to OE,
which is why it printed on the single page.

When sending an image from Word it’s size is reduced when visualized in
OE.
When inserting the same image directly in an OE message it is enlarged
respect to the original. This is also obvious when printed: the original
fits
on a page while the one printed from OE is to large. I sent this same
image a
week ago and did not have this problem. In the meantime I updated to
Internet
Explorer 7. Could that be a possible cause and can it be resolved?
Thanks
