I just put paint.net on

vista


now when I do a print it shows the


Print Pictures software


where you get choices of how many photos per page etc


I don't recall that that happened with XP

Is this normal for Paint.Net on vista?

Paint.NET just uses the built-in Windows Photo Printing Wizard. So whatever changes are made there will also be seen in Paint.NET's print command.

Thanks for that info.

Seems strange to end up printing your work with a windows built-in app.

At the moment I save my work as common formats like png etc and then open in another app (unmentionable) to print.
Will Paint.Net gets control over the printing one day?

I have an image 5cm x 11cm portrait.

I cannot get the windows printing tool to show all the image - even when I change page orientation in the printer setting.

It seems to truncate the top and bottom of the image.

Any ideas on how to get the full image into the 'dumb' Windows print wizard.
