Hi fan0258

I have the answer to your problem. This happens to me quite often.

When doing this, have a Microsoft Word document open.

Step 1 - Find the picture you want to print
Step 2 - Right click on the picture
Step 3 - Click the word "Copy" from the list that appears.
Step 4 - Go to your Microsoft Word document.
Step 5 - Right click in any of the white space on the document
Step 6 - Click the word "Paste" from the list that appears.
Step 7 - When the photo appears, right click on it.
Step 8 - Click "Show Picture Toolbar" from the list that appears.
Step 9 - When the toolbar appears, click the little box with a dog in it.
Step 10 - Click "Tight" from the list that appears.
**There will now be little white dots at the corners of the photo.**
Step 11 – Move your cursor over the dot in the top left corner.
**The cursor should now be a diagonal set of arrows**
Step 12 – Left click and drag your mouse, down and to the right.
**The farther you move the mouse, the smaller your picture will get.**
Step 13 - Center your picture if you wish.

NOTE: If you copy a picture into Microsoft Word and the picture doesn’t show follow these steps.

Step 1 – Open a Word Pad Document
Step 2 – Copy and paste your picture into this program just like you would Microsoft Word.
**By now your picture should be visible in Word Pad.**
Step 3 – Right click on the photo again.
Step 4 – Click on “Copy” from the list that appears
Step 5 – Go back to Microsoft Word and follow steps 5-13 in the above directions.

Hope this didn't seem to complicated.
