because the my camera outputs @ 6x10, which upsizes to 8x12 PERFECTLY, i have 8x12 B&W film paper just no inkjet paper


@8x10 i have to crop a signifigent part of my image or but a boarder on it

6x10 works but mats with a 6x10 opening that fit a 11x14 frame are also near impossable to find

Buy a paper cutter and use legal size paper. Print photo and cut off excess.
< Never seen such a bunch of lazy butts as on ATOT. I guess you would rather have the paper industry re-tool and re market paper rather than do a little work... sheesh ..... :roll:

j/k .... sorta.....

I went to Staples for inkjet legal, and the sold me copy paper. It works better than the crap I was using in my finiky epson. Many HP's do a great job on non-inkjet papers.

Well, I've been manufacturing inkjet paper for almost all the OEM brands for 10 years, and I have NEVER heard of 8x12. We run about 20 different sheet sizes, but no 8X12.

Sounds like a Paper Cutter is in your future... :Q
Still the most practical solution AFAIK.
