Terry.. If you use MS Word, Powerpoint (or even Wordperfect) simply open a new blank document, use the "Insert"  "File" and insert the jpg or bmp schematic. If the schematic is wider than it is tall, use "page setup" first to select either portrait or landscape page orientation. It will obviously at first be far too large for the page, but scale down the page presentation to about 25% initially, click on the attachment to get the "frame" displayed, drag the sides and top/ bottom to fit. Scale the page presentation up as you get closer to a fit. I find that sometimes I have to maybe disturb the aspect ratio a bit (so what if a tube is slightly oval!), but this technique has always worked for me. You may find with large schematics that the print is a little small, but we all have bench magnifiers don't we?
