This is a work in progress. It is a program to let a newbie select an
image, autoscale and autocrop it, let you tweak then print it as a
greeting card.   See http://mindprod.com/zips/greetingcard10.zip

run the jar inside

greetingcard.jar

You may see the problem right away, or perhaps only after you have
printed an image.

The text in the JLabel sometimes forms a "chimney" a tall thin
multiline stack of words instead of a couple of wide lines as
intended.

Source code is included.

The fields behaving strangely are 
JLabel instructions 
and JLabel instructions2

I presume it has something to do with using HTML in the JLabel. I have
never done that before.

I will try changing it to a JEditorPane or JTextArea to see if the
behaviour goes away.
