How to use custom image sizing with Irfanview?

We simply saved an image of a rectangle.
When we open this with Irfanview it shows up as 3.67 x 5.89 inches.
The 5.89 inches is too tall it won't fit on the top half of a printed word document.
I change the 5.89 to 5.0 and the program changes the 3.67 to 3.12 which is too narrow.


How to custom set my own sizes in inches with Irfanview?

The photos are not great quality with some from newspapers, so losing a little quality may not hurt.
Yep, sometimes a little distortion is ok, but when you need to get down to a specific width and height while keeping it proportional, then you'll need to crop.
