Thank you John.
I have been using a picture in IFF24 taken from "Montage" as my test piece.
When used with Montage, this picture fills the screen both on my computer
monitor and as it emerges into my editing monitors – attached to the Toaster.
Quite satisfactory.
When I input this same picture into ImageMaster, it is presented to me on the
computer monitor NOT filling the screen. After saving in IM R/T, and putting
back into the Montage/Toaster system, it then appears undersized, like a poster
fixed on a wall… quite unsatisfactory.
One main question. Does one set the size of the picture you want to put into
IM…. BEFORE you actually try and input the picture into IM… by setting
some mysterious things in IM ? So far, the first thing I am doing, is to input
the picture… and then desperately trying to re-size it… without any
success.
If only I had a Manual !!! Tried to find the "Tutorial" mentioned on one tatty
piece of paper which arrived with the 7 disks. No luck. Even took a look at
the files now on my hard disk. Nothing that would resemble a Tutorial.
As we are a commercial post production house, the time taken in trying to get
the program up and running is VERY important to us. Hence my anxiety.
Regards, Hilary.
