On Mac's the GIF images of the hieroglyphs look very large on the screen. That is because I saved them at 144 dpi resolution but GIF files are always displayed on the screen at 72 dpi (so in this case are displayed twice as large). It is best to download each image file to your computer, then open it up in a graphics program, adjust the printing dimensions to fit the page size you use, and print it. The resolution is good enough to recognise all the signs clearly. Given that the image is about 2 x larger than my paper size (A4), you will need to reduce it to 40 - 50 % to fit in on a standard page size.
For DOS users, here is a suggestion posted by Marc Line (24th May, 1997): " The method which seems to work the best for me involves the use of a piece of shareware called Paintshop Pro. It's available gratis from WWW (URL via a search) sites or from incentive CDs on magazine covers. It allows for the resizing of graphics files prior to printing. The only thing you have to watch out for is that in the process of reduction, a bitmap image which has narrow line widths might lose the odd line or two. The "p" box regularly becomes 3 sided, for example. After printing, it's a good idea to check the hard-copy with the screen image in order to pencil in the losses. "
a) Individual pages can be downloaded to your computer using the browser (eg. in Netscape you simply go to the 'File' menu and use the 'save as' option). Images are NOT SAVED in this procedure, only the text. b) To download the images you need to press the mouse button (the right button on IBM machines) down while the cursor is within the image (hieroglyphs). Then a pop-up menu will appear with a 'save this image' option. Save it to your machine and then you can open it from your browser (use the 'File' menu, 'open file' option), or in a graphics program. All recent graphics programs accept GIF images.
