Are there any amongst you that have experience with PhotoZoom Pro 5 ?

Attention Ye members of the UHH community! I am looking for someone that might be able to answer a few basic question I have about PhotoZoom Pro 5.

I attempted some simple practice prints while using this software yesterday. Everything appeared to work correctly and i was able to save my altered print to a storage file. Yet when I pulled up the file after relocating it to storage, the picture looks unchanged and the size seems to be no larger than the file was when I started. It is terribly frustrating as well as confusing.

Can anyone offer to shed some light on the situation?

Thanks so much....

I haven't used this software but in most cases, unless it is built in, you have to save your image from the toolbar. Some programs, when you put an hour or two into perfection and you do not hit the save, all your work is gone...Norm

Do not ever "SAVE", always choose "SAVE AS" or you will loose your original. Unless of course you make a duplicate when you started the work flow and gave it a different name.

:-) Thank you Norm for your suggestions. You are spot on in your mention of "Saving" my altered file from the tool bar. Through trial and error and searching the tool bar links, I did find how to save the file and I transferred the file to an outside storage disk.

Unfortunately, once I activate the file from the storage disk there does not appear to be any enlargement of the file, which is what I was trying to do. The software says there was a 50% increase in the size of the image..yet it still comes up appearing to have the same dimensions as the original. :hunf: :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

:-) Thanks to you Lucian. I appreciate your suggestions about how to correctly save my new file so as not to lose my original file. Believe me.. way back when, I either forgot or hurried through the process and managed to lose "Original" files in some critical projects just that way. :shock: :oops: :roll: :x :-(

However hard-headed or careless I was back then I did finally mature enough to admit my foolish and reckless ways. This admission lead to me doing a "Save As" near the front of the project rather than leaving it to being one of the last steps. Just like in written text on the computer, one should save often. :thumbup:

best to always get in the habit of duplicating the image from the start then put the original back in its place and work only from the duplicate.
