IE6 - Printing GIF's to fit on one page

[akalinowski]

if i load a large GIF file on IE7 it adjusts itself to fit to page, but IE6 doesnt do this, is this a new feature in IE7 that i cant have in IE6 or can i configure something to make that work?

Print autosizing was added to IE7, it does not exist in IE6 natively. You could save the GIF locally then open it with Picture & Fax viewer - printing from there will give you the abilty to scale it down to 1 printed page.

It can be turned on in IE6 but can be annoying if you really want to study the lage picture.

audiopro, are you sure that's realted to printing? AFAIK, that applies to screen display only.

With 'GIF file on IE7' mentioned in a post to a browser forum I assumed we were talking screen display.
