print layout in EA 4.5
« on: December 19, 2004, 01:28:37 am »
1. I have no printer with A3 paper size in the system I work with, but I want to draw diagrams for team members having A3 printers available. How can I choose A3 page size nevertheless?

2. How can I change the border width (=distance from the sheet edge). In 'Page setup' the printer specific border values are greyed out! Note: I print without border.

Thanks for any help!

Hello Markus,

EA's 'Page Setup' dialog retrieves the available page sizes from your systems default printer, so you may only use a size that your printer can handle.

To enable A3 in EA - we first need to install a printer that can print to A3.

I have been able to install a dummy printer to my systems 'Print to File' port, and A3 now shows in EA.

In response to your other question regarding the page margins - this feature is yet to be implemented, as a result the aformentioned controls will be greyed out.

We endeavor to implement this as soon as possible.

If you require further details on how to install a printer, I am more than happy to assist.

Regards,

Ash
