Odd size paper

Modify your printer driver configuration file name and Add the paper size you desire.

This will use the 'MODEL NAME.PDF'

Really new with Microstation.  Should mention I am using connect v12.  The windows you showed are they for connect, as I cannot find printer driver configurations?

Anthony,

In the plot dialog box, go to FILE > EDIT PLOT CONFIG - that will get you to the window in Bob's post

I do not have a drop down for files,  it opens the attached screen and not much in the print area to be helpful.

Anthony,

Try hitting ctrl + P on the keyboard, same as you can in Word or Excel.
You should see the box below. I know the Edit plot config option could be removed, not sure about the whole FILE pulldown.

Thanks you.

Got it working like I want now.

are you using sheet models or  just model space? you should look in the help and  on line training videos ( youtube , bentley learn) how to set up "print organiser".. you can set up different  print routines  for different settings  and set specific drawings to be selected and  if sheets used it automatically fits  no fence required... if not sheets just  border shapes then you can define the shape and level name to be searched and selected again no fence required ... this is great for batch printing ...and can be resellected every time you have updated the drgs and  need to reprint them..

I have in v8i my workspace configuration has a variable that fits print to max visible edges and I don't have any stuff  outside the title blck view exref clipped  so it auto fences when I hit  control P for one off instant  print...this may be a little to advanced for you just yet but  worth looking up in help .. I havent set this up in Connect edition yet .. so both of us could learn something in the next few days...
