i have a report linked to SQL Database, i have a Blob Field inserted onto the report for a bitmap field in my database, on the initial record i know the photo's dimensions are
W 313 pixels by H 235 pixels, which is W 4.347 inches by H 3.264 inches, which i have verified by the original image using photoshop, as well as using the database stored bitmap using VB, however when i insert that image "Blob Field" into Crystal reports its dimensions are W 3.26 inches by H 2.45 inches with the scaling at 100% for both W n H. what seems to be this problem with Crystal?
 
I guess my first question is ... does the picture look ok for the report?...you can always resize the pic through the format editor...or drag the broders.

As to why it represents the pic differently...I don't know.. Jim

yes the picture is displayed fine, but to resize it means that any picture that comes up in this report with new search parameters is going to be sized wrong as well which will ultimitly cause problems depending how large the picture is because of the scaling factor crystal implements, crystal is using the picture you dragged onto the form at design time for its scaling, another picture will be scaled by that same ratio as well as its pixels, which its calculations seem to be off on
 
ok, a large problem was with Jasc Paint Shop pro v7 reporting the image size wrong, not sure whats up with that
