Chapter 7. printing and emailing photos

In this chapter, you'll learn about two important Picasa capabilities: printing pictures stored in the Librarywhether they're originals or ones you've edited with Picasaand emailing pictures to relatives, friends, and classmates.

You'll find Picasa is one of the easiest programs for generating nice prints in sizes and layouts ranging from wallet to 8" x 10" (full page). It even warns if you try to print an image whose resolution isn't sufficient for the chosen print size.

It's simple to email pictures directly from Picasa, too. Options allow you to email one or multiple images in their original size or reduced to a preset maximum, as well as to send them in storybook format (embedded in the message in a vertical array).

Note: Be sure to read "E-Mail Options" in Chapter 2. The E-Mail Options determine everything important about the format, size, and quality of pictures you send.
