Re: Scaling screen shots

The Scale Graphics Proportionately framescript from Klaus Muller may be 
what you are looking for. 

http://www.i-frame.itl.info/en/feature-description/i-frame-modules/base-pack/scale-graphics-proportionally.html

It used to be free and available from the files area of the 
framescript-users Yahoo group, but I believe he is now charging for it. 
This one script has justified my purchase of FrameScript all by itself.

Keith

I don't know what the Fitting capability in Photoshop is. But to maintain the 
maximum quality in graphics imported into FM, IMHO the best way to scale them 
is by specifying a dpi setting on import. When you select File > Import > File 
and then select a file to import, FM displays the Imported Graphic Scaling 
dialog. It lists several common dpi options (72, 75, 150, 300) and shows you 
the resulting size of the image for each. It also lets you set a custom dpi, in 
which case you need to do a little math to figure out what dpi will give you 
the image width you want. 

To resize an existing imported graphic, right-click it and select Object 
Properties. In the dialog box, under Scaling, click Set dpi to go to the same 
Imported Graphic Scaling dialog. Yes, you can scale by percentage instead (or 
select Fit in Selected Rectangle on import). But in my experience, you end up 
with better quality by setting the dpi, and for print it helps to use a dpi 
setting that divides evenly into the target printer resolution (e.g., 100, 150, 
200, or 300 for a 600-dpi office laser printer). 

HTH!
