3. Letter Box (LB): Scales a picture to fit the projector’s native resolution 

in its horizontal width and resize the picture’s height to the 3/4 of the 
projection width. This may produce a picture greater in height than 
can be displayed, so part of the picture is lost (not displayed) along the 
top and bottom edges of the projection. This is suitable for the display 
of movies which are presented in letter box format (with black bars on 
the top and bottom).

4. Wide: Stretches the picture horizontally in a non-linear manner, that 

is, the edges of the picture are stretched more than the center of the 
picture to prevent distortion of the central part of the picture. This is 
suitable for occasions where you want to stretch the width of a 4:3 aspect 
picture to the width of a 16:9 aspect screen. It does not alter the height. 
Some widescreen movies have been produced with their width squashed 
down to the width of a 4:3 aspect, and are best viewed when restretched 
back to their original width using this setting.

5. Real: This setting displays the image in a one-to-one pixel mapping 

without alteration or resize in the center of the projection. This is most 
suitable for use with PC source inputs.

Using Panamorph lenses (optional)

Panamorph lenses allow you to convert 16:9 projectors to the full 2.35:1 aspect ratio of most motion 
pictures, showing the best movies without letterbox bars at top and bottom of images while increasing 
resolution by 33% and brightness by 20%.

You may need a 2.35:1 screen to display the 2.35:1 images. For more information, please go to 
www.panamorph.com or contact the place you purchased the projector.
