I have a printer that will do borderless printing, I would like to print
some of my photos off, but in various sizes like A4, 10 x 8, 7 x 5 and 6 x 4
and so on, I would like a piece of software that will allow me to do this, I
don't need any thing else just a simple program that will crop my photo to
make it borderless for printing.

regards Keith

I am not sure what you want? Are you asking for a program that will crop
your photos to particular aspect ratios? (Bearing in mind that all the
sizes you give are different ratios.)
I think Irfanview will do that.

But you'll need eg. 10 x 8 sized paper to *print* borderless, so unless
I've chosen the wrong example someone has to cut the paper to that size.
So why not use, say, A4 paper and then crop the print?

Or have I missed your point?

Picasa lets you do this in the print options: wallet, 3½x5, 4x6, 5x8 and
10x8.

If you have XP and no Image editors. Then selecting the Image and then
print brings up the Print wizard with options

I use Microsoft Photo Premium 10 for just this sort of thing. I find it
to be pretty intuitive and to work well, and some of the quick fix
functions are useful too.

Aria Technology (www.aria.co.uk) were selling it in a cheap bundle with
other Microsoft stuff (called Premium Pack 2005) for about £23
delivered but I don't know if they still have it.
