I am wondering how I can figure out how large something will be when I print
it out.?

Thanks

Image > Image Size > Document Size.

Also - click on the bar at the bottom left of the main Photoshop window and an
outline image of the page will pop up.

Also - File > Print Options.

Select the Zoom tool, right click and select Print Size.

This is of course assuming that you are using a P.C. rather than a Mac

Ctrl + R will bring up the rulers. Then you can see print dimensions.

Image > Image Size will also show you print dimensions

Mac-side note:
Dropping the resolution in Image>Image Size increases the size of the
pic when it is rasterized and dumped to the printer. You will, of
course, lose picture quality in most instances. I usually only print
from Photoshop when I'm in the frame of mind where it's too much of a
hassle to open the same image file in another Mac app like
GraphicConverter or Jade.

Too bad there isn't support for JumpTo's like that.

Yes there is. Just make an alias of the desired program and drop it into
the "Helpers" folder. HTH.
