Need to crop this image
-
Never used that snipping tool, is it the same as a crop? That's what I'm asking, how to crop it so it'll print out as much as possible on a sheet of paper.
I just googled that and see-
What is the ratio of 8.5 x 11?
4:3 is the most common for me. 4:3 for 5x7, 8x10; 8.5x11so how do I crop to 4:3? I have Corel Photo Paint and a couple other programs to crop images. Can I enter 4:3 as I'm cropping?

The 'Snipping Tool' is an 'app' that comes with Windows...
Use 'Search' to find/open it...Don't fret too much about getting the exact ration of sides, pick something that looks like a standard sheet of paper and use that to 'fit' onto a sheet...
PS: the attached is my snip from your image... print it landscape and scaled-to-fit the paper.

I want as much of the image as possible to print out so it's easier to see while driving.

I know you asked about cropping. However, if these directions were on a Google map, you could just send the directions to your smartphone.

I can't do anything on my phone, can't see what's on the screen well enough. That's why I like to print out the map but thanks for the tip.

Joe, you need a bigger phone
I have a 6" LG and I use a magnet clip to attach it to the middle vent on the car to use for pandora, MP3s and maps.
Works well for me.

Yeah I know, maybe I need a GPS system, but that's not what I asked about Glenn.

Print this out on letter-paper...

I know Joe, just messing with ya

Thanks Tig but I need to anoint that image a bit first before I print it out, beside I want to learn how to do it myself.

I used Google Maps to get the route from j23A via the roads you showed, I guessed the destination !
I then used the scale-zoom tool in the browser to fit all of the text in the one view [80% I think?]
I zoomed/panned the blue-route on the map to miss out unnecessary places.
I then used the snipping tool to capture what you see [approximating a paper sheet], and saved it as a PNG.
I then opened and printed that PNG in the Windows 'Photos' tools, and printed it to a [Windows-]PDF, choosing letter-paper, landscape, shrink-to-fit etc... -
Darn that's too complicated, I just want to crop it to the size I need but thanks twice Tig!
-
I think I found my own answer, just change the crop size upper left of this s shot?
this was too easy sorry for asking something like this.

yeah after cropping to exact size I'm able to move the crop box around.
