Why do people repeatedly get this so wrong? (Users and those making the systems.) The pixel count and resolution should be set to match the display card and the monitor, it's the FONT SIZE and graphics sizes that you should change. It's the *only* way to get things to work properly. Circles get drawn as circles, not eggs. Print previews are able to show things at "real size" on request, which puts an end to masses of test prints trying to get something you want printed at 1 cm square (for example) to actually print at the correct size. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
