XP/vista scan resizing issue

[Erik]

i recently changed from XP to vista, and since i changed i have had some
issues with scanning full A4 pages. in XP the pages i scanned automaticly
fitted directly into the document (an A4 scan was still full A4 in word). But
in vista it automaticly resizes the scan to fit inside the "writing frame"
(the middle of the paper, like 3cm from top and sides) is there any way to
change this without having to change the "writing frame" size every time i
want to scan a document? i think i used same version of word then as i do now
(office 2003) and i still have the same scanner (brother mfc-240C)

You're in the wrong group: This is Macintosh Word.

That said, if you "paste" an image into Word, Word will automatically scale
it to fit the available space. You can override that by right-clicking and
setting the size to 100%

Cheers
