Abstract

A method and system assist a user in selecting a print option for rendering an image. A database includes print options for rendering images on different sizes of print media. At least some of the print options include different levels of scaling of the image. Features of an image to be rendered are identified. Based on the identified features, at least one of the following is performed: filtering the print options and ranking the print options in the database, to identify a subset of candidate print options from the database of print options. A graphical user interface is generated for displaying representations of at least some of the candidate print options. The graphical user interface is displayed to a user on a display device, whereby a user is able to select a print option for rendering the image.
