Enlarging a Newspaper Clipping

Sometimes, when newspaper clippings are shared on Facebook, they are hard to read or the bottom part isn't visible. Here's what I try to remember when this happens.

Downloading the image gives me more control. I can open the image with IrfanView. This "free" program has an option that allows me to, gain control of, and enlarge, the image. Almost every time this allows me to make the text large enough for easy reading. My goal is to be able to type the article in order to include the text in the Note field of my genealogy file.
