Print

The to make a printout, go to the Main Menu and select Print under the File option.

Clicking the Print button will open the Print Dialog.

Clicking the OK button will send the print job to the selected printer. The resulting printout will be of the current view on a single page, with all screen objects included. Logos will be printed in the margins and the page number and the date and time of the printing will be shown on the footer of the page.

Preview Pane

The rectangular cell on the right side of the Print window is called the Preview Pane. This is not to be confused with Print Preview which is a separate topic. The preview pane simply gives an idea of what content will be printed and how it will span across multiple pages. In some cases this preview may not be identical to user settings and should only be used as an estimate. Clicking pages in this box will select or deselect the page for printing only specific pages. See the section below entitled Print Range for more information. The Invert Selected Pages button will allow you to select and deselect certain pages. This can be particularly useful when printing a grid of pages.

Content

The content area controls which image will be sent to the printer and at what quality.

Scaling

These options specify how the image should be scaled to a desired size or specified number of pages
