Hi all, I want to enlarge this image or likeness of my Staffordshire Bull terrier to scroll.
I have tried to enlarge on my photo program but all I am doing is enlarging the pixels and that makes the outline all fuzzy so to speak.
Can any one tell me how to do it?(to fit A4) .

You might want to download Irfanview, which is free.

After installing it, try these steps:

Copy image to clipboard.
Paste into Irfanview.
Go to Image - Resize/Resample.
Set the relevant new size.
Enable Apply sharpen after resample.
Click OK.
Go to Image - Effects - Edge detection.
Go to Image – Negative.

That should give you something you can work with. I was able to come up with this.

Turn it into a vector graphic and resize at will.

Inkscape - another freebie that'll convert bitmaps to vectors.

Import staffie.jpg via the file menu. Got to the Path menu and click 'Trace Bitmap'

Resize to taste and print.
 
Thanks to all that have responded to my posting.
Neal Moore has e mailed me all the hard graft of enlarging and touching up of my request.
Many thanks Neal, and thanks again to everyone. :wink:
 
Blimey, you have to be careful to read this threads title correctly, for a moment I thought it was another one of those online pharmacies. :lol:
 
Very good, Senior! =D>

Nice one :lol: :lol: :lol:

I did wonder what you doing on the scroll saw forum!

try rapid resizer they do a free trail and if it is just to resize your pattern that will do the job.-----Chef(beian)----
