| Urgent, resizing picture.
Just used "print screen" and then edited in MS paint. The picture size I cropped came out to be 1886x880.
How to resize so i can print it on "letter size" paper properly without the words getting smaller.... ??
sorry, title was a bit misleading, meant to say image. Its actually document not picture

If you print-screened something, it's now an image.
If you want to scale it, everything in that image will either scale up or down.
I think you might want to be a bit more descriptive.

Paint should automatically resize the image in Paint to fit the extents of the paper you are using, so if you're trying to fit it all one one page there's no way to prevent it from shrinking the text without cropping it into sections and printing onto multiple sheets.

Go to page setup, and make sure the scaling is set to fit to 1 by 1 pages. Also, ensure that the orientation and paper size are correct, while you're there.
