Noyb, Feb 15, 2011 #2 Noyb Trusted Advisor Joined: May 25, 2005 Messages: 19,984 Got it ... And it opens OK in Irfanview. Not sure what editing you want to to do it, but Irfanview can also perform basic editing. Do I see some NY in the background ??? Noyb, Feb 15, 2011 #3 redoak Gone but never forgotten Thread Starter Joined: Jun 24, 2004 Messages: 6,782 Thanks for the reply. Answer is "YES." I'll next see if I can crop the picture. Had IrFanView installed but never before used it {redoak} redoak, Feb 15, 2011 #4 Noyb Trusted Advisor Joined: May 25, 2005 Messages: 19,984 Irfanvew is good at cropping. I'm thinking Microsoft Photo Editor is obsolete. Noyb, Feb 15, 2011 #5 Noyb Trusted Advisor Joined: May 25, 2005 Messages: 19,984 A quick tip on cropping with Interview .. Press Crtl+A .. to select all .. then click n drag each side of the cropping window to where you want it. I passed that one thru Photoshops "auto color" .. and it made a big difference in the color. About only way I know to do this in Irfanview is to adjust the Contrast as shown below. Irfanviews Auto adjust works many times .. but not on this one.

I want to have paper copies made of the pic. I can't find any way to send the cropped/resized pic to my flash drive. The right click menu doesn't provide for this. {redoak} redoak, Feb 15, 2011 #7 Noyb Trusted Advisor Joined: May 25, 2005 Messages: 19,984 If you're using Irfanview to view the pictures ...

by Dale We had a user report this error when he was trying to edit a photo taken with his Canon DIGITAL IXUS 80 IS Camera. After much investigation, I've told the user that this "… Office 97/2000 bundled http://blog.wisefaq.com/2011/09/09/microsoft-photo-editor-cannot-read-file/ utility has a fault with it. It does not support larger images produced by http://www.sevenforums.com/music-pictures-video/99267-ms-photo-editor.html your camera. And as it is no longer supported by Microsoft, there is little more we can do. Here are some freeware alternatives …" The following is not an answer to the problem, but what I found out: Wikipedia - Microsoft Photo Editor “Version 3.0.2.3 (and possible other versions) had an issue opening large JPEG photographic images, error reading due in part to its age. The maximum file size is approximately 2 MBs. Large Windows bitmap BMP files can be opened in Microsoft Photo Editor. This suggests an error associated with the decompression logic of the application." Maybe caused by an "out of range" problem??? The user's photo was 3264(w)x2448(h) at 180dpi. If I reduced the height from 2448 pixels, to 2048 pixels; the photo would load in Photo Editor. error reading file So my first theory was that height is limited to 2048. That theory lasted all of 10 minutes. Took a different photo and scaled it down to 2731×2048. It error-ed in Photo Editor. The only difference I can see between the two 2048 high photos, is the “Compressed bits/pixel" value, 3 vs 5. So I haven't gotten to the root cause of the problem, apart from it being a out of range/buffer overflow type error.

Windows 7: MS Photo Editor Page 1 of 6 1 23 > Last » 23 Jul 2010 #1 RAS230 win7 4 posts MS Photo Editor I'm a fan of the Microsoft photo editor that came with office, and I've been using it as my default image viewer for years. I wasn't sure I would be able to get it working on my win7 pro machine but I got it to work. In case anyone wants to know, here's what I did to move it from my XP system: 1. copy PCDLIB32.dll to \windows\system32\ 2. create the directory \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Photoed\ and copy these files to it: CHALKCHA.DLL EMBOSS.DLL GRAPHICP.DLL NOTEPAPE.DLL PEINTL.DLL PHOTOED.CNT PHOTOED.EXE PHOTOED.HLP STAINEDG.DLL STAMP.DLL TEXTURIZ.DLL WATERCOL.DLL 3. create the directory \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Grphflt\ and copy these files to it: BMPIMP32.FLT CDRIMP32.FLT CGMIMP32.CFG CGMIMP32.FLT CGMIMP32.FNT EPSIMP32.FLT FPX32.FLT GIFIMP32.FLT JPEGIM32.FLT MS.BMP MS.CDR MS.CGM MS.EPS MS.FPX MS.GIF MS.JPG MS.PCX MS.PNG MS.TIF MS.WPG PCDIMP32.FLT PCXIMP32.FLT PICTIM32.FLT PNG32.FLT TIFFIM32.FLT WMFIMP32.FLT WPGEXP32.FLT WPGIMP32.FLT 4.
