If you are working with Visio (why do I suspect that you aren't?) then open the Size & Position window (menu View) and set the Width and Height to the required sizes. However, any picture format like this has no intrinsic size in inches or and other unit, they are defined in terms of pixels, how that number of pixels translates to a physical dimension depends on the application you are using. -- Regards, Paul Herber, Sandrila Ltd.

To add to Paul's comment "However, any picture format like this has no
intrinsic size in inches", you have to know the media that you are working with. XP screens are (AFAIK) 72 PixelsPerInch, Vista uses 96pps, printers driven by picture editors are often adjustable with 300pps being very popular. HTH, al "Paul Herber" wrote in message ell.net...
