I'm a new user and wanted to change the units in the "File > Print" window to imperial from metric. Changing in "Preferences" doesn't change them and neither do the printer units. So far I haven't been able to find any references. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Note: I'm referring to the default unit (mm) that comes up in "Size and Position"

It's probably country, language and number notation properties in Windows itself, not PSP. You can find that somewhere in the control panel, Clock, Language, Region (or something like that, sorry, Dutch Windows here and Dutch translations aren't always 'smart'). On the Notation tab there's a "More..." button where you can choose metric or imperial measurements.

That screenshot also looks like the printer dialog box that was installed by the printer software. You might look there as well to see about changing units.

I would never have found that.

It never crossed my mind that it would be a Windows system setting. I went in to Country through the Control Panel and changed it and now we're good.

I'm a little surprised that the software would hardwire units here but let you select units in other areas such as "Image>Resize" - go figure

Anyway - thanks for the help
