SYMPTOMS

If you insert an image and then crop or enlarge the image in an image- editing program, such as Microsoft Image Composer, the image will appear to be a different size in Page view than it does in the image-editing program.

CAUSE

When you insert an image on your page, Microsoft FrontPage uses the WIDTH and HEIGHT attributes to define the size of the image. Even though you cropped or enlarged the image in an external program, FrontPage retains these attributes. Therefore, in FrontPage, the image is sized according to those dimensions.

RESOLUTION

Remove the Image Size property for the image, To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Select the image.
  2. On the Edit menu, click Image Properties.
  3. In the Image Properties dialog box, click the Appearance tab.
  4. Click to clear the Specify Size check box.
  5. Click OK.
