Hello,
i am using a scanner to scan logos from business cards to make into badges.
i then send the image scanned from page maker to corel photo paint 3. after
making my adjustments to what i want to send to corel draw 3, i import that
to corel draw 3. my problem is, it takes up the whole page. i have already
saved my outline box w/2 different borders & would like to put this scanned
logo on to it so i can make my badges w/staff names on it.

any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! i have called corel & they no
longer have tech support for the corel draw 3. i'm starting to feel my
brain go numb!!!

thanks!

Lori -

If you're saving your bitmap as a BMP, it will come into Draw as 'full page'.
The reason is that the BMP format doesn't support DPI info, so Draw has to
make an arbitrary decision as to how many pixels per inch to display it at.

To maintain size info, save your scans as TIF.
