I'm trying to print out a pic to fit in a 6"x8" (20x25 cm) frame. I have Windows 10 and looked at printing the pic using the print options for both the pic and my printer but there aren't any corresponding sizes. Anyone know how to do it?

Frankly, no, but you might get somewhere by copying and pasting the picture file into a Word document, resizing it to the dimensions you want, then printing the page.

Aha, should have thought of that and what a success! I had three pics with various size ratios so copied them into a Word doc (don't ask why they came out upside down), clicked on the ruler, had a little fiddle and by Jove I think I've got it!  The pic was taken by OH on our Hebridean cruise with his new camera. Somehow he managed to slide one of the buttons on the top so he ended up with six versions of the same pic. It's actually one of my favourites and am framing it as a certain festival present for our dear niece and her OH.

I know you have it sorted now but I just looked at the Windows 10 Print Picture tool and did see a 20x25cm option.

I opened File Explorer and went and found one of my pictures (it happens to be landscape rather than your portrait orientation). I also only have a black and white laser printer so please ignore the greyscale in the shot below.

Next I right-clicked on the picture and selected Print. The "How do you want to print your picture" window appeared. In it I could select my printer, the paper size the dpi resolution and the paper type. Down on the right side was a column of "frame sizes", one of which is 20x25cm.

Do you see that on your machine? Also make sure "Fit picture to frame" is selected.

Ah DC, it seems I made a little typo so Mea Culpa for that. I should have stated 6" x 8" equals roughly 20.5 x 15.5 cm. However all is not lost as I copied it into a doc, cropped it using the ruler, and hopefully it will work. If not, I'll get a different picture frame size. Thanks all.

There is an option to change Windows 10 from Metric to Imperial which will switch to Imperial photo sizes but it is well buried!

If you are brave enough to dive into the darker areas of Win10, it is Control Panel - Time and Language - Date and Time Regional Formatting - Region - Change Date, Time or Number Format - Additional Settings - Measurement System : Metric/US

Phew!
