RE: Windows Photo Gallery - Can't Print FAXes...

I just re-read this, and I could have explained myself clearer.

My fax system sends me a multi-page TIF file.

The TIF file has a horizontal resolution of 204 and a vertical resolution of
98.
(I seem to remember that a "standard quality" fax was supposed to have a
resolution of 200x100, so this seems to make sense.)

The WFG can correctly render the fax on the screen, and the fax looks good.
(In order to do this, it must 'compact' the horizontal resolution from ~2:1
to 1:1.)

However, when the WFG is asked to print the image, it does not render the
image the same as the screen, and prints it out at ~2:1 resolution.
The result is a fax that is wider than it is tall - ie it looks like it has
been stretched horizontally.

Changing the landscape / portrait options makes no difference.

Does anyone have a solution.

Nick.
