Hi, I have been trying to make an invitation card for a birthday. I used the measurements from an old one I had, W 8.213 inches - H 3.827 inches. When I create a .jpg from the .psd the dimensions change to W10.267 inches - H 4.783 inches. I have flattened the layers then saved the original .psd file, so could anyone please help me out with this. Thanks Mac

What is the problem?
If you are going to print it out from a printer ,Just print from Photoshop.

Thanks for replying, my printer has called it a day, so I was going to print them at Jessops. When I load 2 files onto my memory stick they are 8.213 inches x 3.827 inches 300ppi. But when they are opened the sizes are 10.267 inches x 4.783 ininches 240 ppi, they will be to big. I am not at all sure about layers & suchlike so I could have made a mistake along the way. The different resolution has me puzzled. Thanks Mac

Now, I am a little puzzled.
Never, had that one happen....
Before, saving to .jpg try setting all the layers to the canvas size.
Then save as a .jpg Let me know how it goes.

.jpg is not very accurate and recomended output format, in order to get them printed on paper...
settings may vary from printer to printer as well from the application that you print from.
i would recommend printing files from lets say coreldraw on your own printer or have published them in to pdf files.
also pay attention that some printers do the stretch/skew document function to adjust their size to the paper size
or to document size.

Some consumer-grade printing places will only accept RGB JPEGs, such as Costco where I am. In those cases, I have found that RGB JPEG is quite accurate, for both size and color. In fact, surprisingly accurate for color.
I've never had such size-shifts as the OP has experienced, so he's probably not watching the options in his output dialog box.
Sorry I took time to reply, I have been away for a few days. I have sorted it out, at least it is keeping the dimensions I save it in. I downloaded a image of a bottle that was 8 bit but I saved the completed image as a 16 bit. When I changed the 8 to a 16 bit I have had no problem. Thanks Mac
