How do I reduce a photo in actual size and memory permanently?

Answer 1

Open the file in Paintbrush, reduce the size and save with the same name as the orginal.

Answer 2

Use an image-editing program to crop or reduce the size of your photo. This goes for the actual size. For the memory (the file size), save your photo as a JPEG image (in an image-editing program) then try to reduce the JPEG quality until the loss of information becomes visible. Now (if you want) you can delete the previous files from your disk (to free the space) and keep only the enhanced photo.

Answer 3

Is the photo a file on your computer? If so, and you are running Windows, you should be able to: 1. Open Microsoft Paint. 2. Open the file from there. 3. Select File then Page Setup. 4. Adjust Scaling to what seems to be good. 5. Look at what you should get, using File, Print Preview Keep doing #4 and #5 until it looks good. 6. Print a test copy, to check the size. If the size is bad, tweak the Scaling and try again.

Answer 4
