    Anyone use this software to annotate photos from their HP scanner? [mine's the 3500c, but I think the software is common across many HP scanners] When I add text to a photo (Annotate>Text), and maybe put a box around the text or switch to an opaque background behind the text, everything initially looks fine. However, as soon as I accept it as the final version (using Save As), some of the text gets truncated off the right side. [What I See Is Not What I Get after I've saved it!] Even leaving extra blank spaces at the end of each line doesn't always solve the problem...several letters of my text get lopped off. How do I avoid this? Thnx..

    I use HP Image Editor for some things, and I've found just about the same problem - WYS is NOT WYG! I use Image Editor for some basics, but only for straightening or cropping, and mostly fall back on an ancient version of Corel Photo House for anything else.
