RE:InDesign 'crop images to frames'



Hi Shane,

Thanks very much for your reply.  I get the same results.  It still 
seems backwards to me though, because I would think if you set 'crop 
images to frames' to true that you'd want the file size to be smaller 
(as if you were cropping the image to the frame size you want and 
discarding any of the image that was hidden).  Even if it seems 
backwards at least it will still work for what I am needing.  Thanks 
again for taking the time to help with this.  As always, I really 
appreciate it.  :-)

Jay
