Print Organizer - how to set boundaries correctly ...

I am struggling with setting up the boundaries for a scene in Print Organizer ...

My goal is to print view1 in a PDF file.

Here's a screenshot of such a scene:

When I now add it to Print Organizer the preview looks like this:

How can I bring view1 completely into the PDF? How do I have to set the boundaries so that it shows the complete view?

  • Are you just plotting by View 1 with no other shape or cell to define the print area? I would suggest using a saved view and using that as your search criteria. If you use View 1 and someone goes into the file and zooms to a specific area then exits the file saving the settings, you just print the zoomed area.

    Hope that makes sense.

  • I have already tried to use saved views but in this case the preview as well as the PDF file are completely blank ...

  • Looks like it could be one of two things:

    The View is not Maximized on the printed area.

    A Print Attribute is turned on "Clip Front/Back" If you turn it off it will display rest of image.

  • Have you tried turning on the rasterised option in the print dialog, this often fixes pdf issues for me...

  • Is this just what it looks like in the print organiser? or does it look 'cut away' in the actual pdf created?

    I have noticed on my system the thumbnail prieview doesn't always complete drawing the image which is to be printed, due to a timeout :-

     

    it says in the "message center" right at the bottom of the screen, something like "preview cannot be completed due to timeout error"

    maybe, maybe not - just a thought.
