I am using Paintbrush which comes in Windows 3.0. I cut a picture
in Paintbrush, putting it into the clipboard. I then enter Word for
Windows, and paste. The problem is this: the apparent size of the pasted
graphic come in two sizes (one about 50% of the other). This seems to
happen at random (we can't seem to reproduce this error at will). It
appears to have something to do with copying and moving parts of the
graphic in Paintbrush. In Word, the format picture command claims that
the actual size and scaling are identical, yet they are of different
size on the screen AND are of different size when printed out. Has
anyone seen a problem like this? Any suggestions appreciated.
