The Resize button allows you to select the projection method 
for certain types of image input signals from a computer.
With images up to XGA size (1024 ´ 768) or SVGA size (800

portion of the image or project the entire image in a

image size to the projectors maximum resolution. The Resize 
button cannot be used with images at XGA or SVGA 
resolution.
