Setting size of emailed pictures ..................................ts

[ted scherbel]

Yesterday I was sending some JPEG photos via Outlook and I happened onto a
window where I could select the size of this picture. It allowed Small
Medium and Large .

I have not been able to locate this page again. Maybe someone can tell me
how to get there - please.

I run Windows XP

Could it be "Office Picture Manager"?

 

[ted scherbel]

no , what I encountered was within the Outlook package. The only other item
open would be MS Word.

Also, I am running Outlook 2002 on an XP machine

No it wasn't. This is a standard option in the Operating system's Picture
viewer, not Outlook.

Thanks Russ,

I opened my photo with MS Picture and Fax Viewer, but could not find a
place to set up the transmitted image's size. Perhaps you can add a little
more detail...
thanks, ted

if you repeat the steps you used to send the first pictures, do you see the
option to resize? to the best of my recollection, outlook 2002 doesn't offer
it, but windows xp does.

Don't open the photo/picture. Use Windows Explorer to browse My Pictures
folder or whatever folder you use to keep your photos. Right click a photo -
Sent To - Mail Recipients.

Which one? XP? Vista?

Russ: I made the statement of running XP in my original message.

Your last response was : "This is a standard option in the Operating
system's Picture
viewer."

I assume you mean the Windows Picture and Fax viewer. However, I cannot
locate the method used to set a JPEG compression level in this application.

Thanks John, I tried this procedure a couple times, but the SEND failed for
some unknown reason. I will revisit this approach later today.

Regards, ted

Thanks to all who helped here. I FINALLY got it all put together and all is
working.

Thanks again,

Ted

It's a standard option in Vista's. I'll have to check on XP's when I find an
installation old enough that's still using it. It has never been an Outlook
option.

It would be helpful to others if you would post your final discoveries.
