Enlarging a Photo

[douglas1929]

I am using PE 2019. Is it possible to enlarge an 8 x 10 photo to 12 x 24 and then print,using more than one sheet of paper

It can be done.

What is the pixel dimensions of the photo?

If it is not large enough, it will be greatly degraded.

Dimensions are

2200 x 1700 pixels

Since this is going to be a Backdrop I am not to concerned with degrading.

In that case, resize the image, make two different selections, and place each selection in a new layer.  Print one with only the first selection visible and one with only the second selection visible.
