Image Enlargement Issue - thadc - 05-12-2020

Hello,

I am having an image enlargement problem, specifically with exported images. I have an image in the gimp (xcf) format. I enlarged the image via image->scale image. On the gimp tool it appeared to enlarge properly. However, I have to export as another format (sort of arbitrarily choosing jpg) to import into a wiki page.

Unfortunately, when I export, the image size once added to the wiki page seems to stay the same size on the wiki page as it was before I attempted to enlargement. I have tried things like exporting with a different name, but that makes no difference. I would be grateful for any ideas.

thank you

Basically do not know, just throwing possibilities in.

1. The software behind the wiki, scales down everything to a default maximum for initial viewing. This forum does that. Click on the image below for full size.

2. The wiki software picks up the image exif information and uses that.

Try an export with all the options un-ticked, see if it makes any difference.
