How to stop Outlook2003 re-sizing inserted images (if changed Win DPI)
Hello
How do I stop Outlook 2003 from re-sizing my images when I insert them into an HTML email if I have changed the Window Text DPI size?
Background:
Attached images are fine. And of my Window text DPI is "100%" (96dpi) then no problem. BUT, I have a high resolution screen 1920x1200 and so I *must* resize the text (to at least 120% - I am currently using 125% DPI in fact). And when I change the Windows DPI size, then as soon as Outlook sends the email it re-sizes the image. In fact in the email in the Sent folder the images is already (25%) too large. And if I forward it, then it gets larger by a further 25%. Nightmare!
Mostly I am using JPG files (or PNG) and Photoshop or FSCapture or Xara to create my graphic images. I have tried changing the file's DPI setting by using IrfanView up to 120x120 DPI, but this failed to help.
I also tried using GIF images - which do not appear to even have any internal DPI setting but they get made larger in exactly the same way.
This has been problem for me for many years and I have tried various things over the years but so far NOTHING WORKS.
Any suggestions?
