SYMPTOMS
========

If you insert an image and then crop or enlarge the image in an image-editing
program, such as Microsoft Image Composer, the image will appear to be a
different size in FrontPage Editor than it does in the image-editing program.

CAUSE
=====

When you insert an image on your page, FrontPage uses the WIDTH and HEIGHT
attributes to define the size of the image. Even though you cropped or enlarged
the image in an external program, FrontPage retains these attributes. Hence, in
FrontPage, the image is sized according to those dimensions.

RESOLUTION
==========

Remove the Image Size property for the image. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Select the image.

2. On the Edit menu, click Image Properties.

3. In the Image Properties dialog box, click the Appearance tab.

4. Click to clear the Specify Size check box.

5. Click OK.


For more information about inserting images, click the Index tab in FrontPage
Help, type the following text

  "inserting, image" (without the quotation marks)

and then double-click the selected text to go to the "To insert an image from the
current FrontPage Web" topic.
