Print downsize cut part of layout

Featured Replies

Hello,

I want to print a layout content wich is bigger than A4 size (please don't ask to re-arrange the layout because it's dam'n complex :-)).

For that I use the resize factor in % located in print driver.

Doing a print downsize doesn't reduce the content of the layout to fit the page (A4), in fact, the visible - not reduced layout content - is shrinked according to the value specified in a smaller region in A4 page during print, cutting the right and bottom section of the layout. Same thing appens using PrimoPDF.

Have an idea for that problem ?

Thank you very much in advance

Try this: set the page setup to something larger than A4, save it as a pdf then print the pdf at the reduced size.

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.

Your solution is working well but not very usable because those prints are intended to be used by "normal" users and very often. This procedure is too long and "complicated" for that users profile.

In the same way, I have suggested to apply the same trick to the target printer but the printer is asking confirmation to print the unknown report. I will try to define a special layout in printer configuration to see if works, not so elegant but...

Ideally, it should be nice to have the same "resize" function in FM that we have in Excel !

Thank you again.
