I created a bitmap picture logo and added it to my invoice but when it prints its very small, what can I do?You will need to create a larger bitmap image. The reason is because the print resolution that your printer uses is much better than that of your screen, so the logo prints smaller. We could have defined an area on the layout and "stretched" the picture into it, but this will result in a distorted image. We choose not to limit the size of your bitmap. You must simply make your image larger. Please note that by increasing the size of your bitmap requires more ink/toner from your printer and therefore might not be a good idea if you print a large amount of forms.
IMPORTANT! ABOUT DPI MEASUREMENTS: The size of your printed logo is actually determined by the resolution DPI (Dots-Per-Inch) setting of your printer as you have setup in Windows! In other words, your logo will print larger at a 300 DPI setting than it would at 600 DPI and the size and print quality is actually determined by YOUR printer as you have it defined in Windows Control Panel. Try a 300 DPI setting before using a 600 DPI setting. You can get to your printer setup by using the Windows Control Panel - Printers and selecting the printer properties for that printer.
Also note that all of our settings for envelopes, mailing labels, form settings, etc., are all in DPI measurements. This means that if you are printing at 600 DPI, a setting of 600 in our program equals one inch, and 300 would equal 1/2 inch. Likewise, if you are printing at 300 DPI, a setting of 150 would equal 1/2 inch. If you are not sure what your DPI is, try moving the printing by 1 inch by adding/subtracting 600 to/from the number you are adjusting. If it moves too far, try 300 instead. Also, some printers can print at 1200 DPI and higher, so if text gets 'scrunched' up when printed, you will need to increase the values by 300, 600, 1200 or higher. Simply keep doubling the settings until you find the one that works for you, then make any small adjustments you need to get the printed text just where you want it. Since we use DPI measurements in this software, you can make your adjustments to printed output with pin-point accuracy!
