Using the guidance that comes with a pass****t application, it's easy
using Photoshop to get the images the correct size. Because the
guidance also says that home printed images are not acceptable (though I
doubt they could tell with a decent printer) I had to make sure the
print came out the right size when done 'professionally'. I did
pictures for three people in one go, making a composite image of them
and sized for 5x7 paper. I put a 5x7 frame round the whole image and
made sure that the printer (high street shop where I've discovered the
operator has a brain) knew to use that for calibration. Came out
exactly right.
