Scaling Problems when Printing

Jim57 · 9 Jan 2012, 19:14

I'm trying to print a Layout document. Two problems:

In the print preview, it seems to be scaled to about 25%.

The document is laid out in landscape mode, but it's printing in portrait, further shrinking it.

I can't find controls to change this in either the print preview settings or Document Setup in Layout, and I'm not sure where else to look.

Thanks for your suggestions,
Jim

Layout v. 3.0.11751
Mac OS 10.6.8

So I exported as PDF and printed from that (I'd already saved it). No problems, proper scale & orientation. I minimized the window and went on to other things.

Later I came back and added another view in a second page. Without thinking, I went to print from Layout. No problems! Proper scale & orientation.

Whassup?

Good question. I've never printed directly from LayOut. I always export PDFs and print them.

Printing from layout is slow. I always generate my pdf, then print.
