Hello Friends. Why do we only meet when I'm (or you are) in trouble? (chuckle)

New problem that's driving me crazy. I'm re-publishing some of my books on my Mac Mini - 10.5.8.

When I take a cover I've built on Color-It (in JPEG or PIC) and transfer it to Preview or to Graphic Converter to convert to PDF - suddenly a cover that's supposed to be 9+" tall and 12.50+" wide blows up to something like 27+" x 19+".

No matter what angle I approach it from I get the same result! Of course the printer cannot accept anything like that (It's Print On Demand - a wonderful new POD printer, Snowfall Press.com)

The error, I think, is somewhere in the OS (??), not the Preview or the Graphic Converter - (I don't think it is in the Color-It either - it comes out of there as a PIC or JPEG perfectly. It's when I put that cover into the Graphic Converter OR the Preview to change to PDF is when this happens.

Does anyone have any idea what's happening? This is new this last week.

Thank you,

Dennis
