"Optimise" in what way? If you zoom an image, you'll always lose quality...

Could you elaborate a bit more on what you want to achive? Do you have large images that do not fit on a screen because their resolution exeeds the screen resolution? In this case, do you simply want to zoom in until you reach 1:1 ratio (1 screen pixel = 1 pixel in your image) or do you want to zoom further?

Some more details would help us help you :-)

now i m working project parallel graphics or tiled image viewer here we hav to divide the image into 4 parts and display them on 4 different clients so when i want to zoom one part of image using glPixelZoom() in openGl then it start from bottom left corner and the upper part of the image will lost so i want that lost part to be displyed on other screen
i will tell you our screens positions
A B
C D

so suppose i m zooming the image then upper part of C D will lost and A B are displaying images from bottom so i want to know how much part C or D is displaying after zoom so
that in A B i can display the appropriate parts
