The pic I was working with adjusted dpi to 72's when I saved after adjusting brightness and contrast. When brought into GIMP and image - scale image - is called it automatically shows 300's on res. Would not allow width and height where I wanted from here. Saved res at 300 and went to transform tools - scale image - then cropped from transform tools. Cropped a few extra pixels off the height but that was probably just me rushing and I'll be able to get it right.
