rorty IRS A4?
DunkerT - 24/8/06 at 09:03 PM

hello all,
Just a simple question, does anybody know how to get the Rorty IRS plans (Adoba Acrobat Reader) onto A4, as the A3 pages do not print out properly on my A4 printer and I do not have access to an A3 printer at the moment.
Thanks very much all.

Click on the properties box next to the window showing your printer and (although the next screen is dependant on the printer you have chosen) you should be able to change the output size to A4, close that window and back on the original screen there is a box to click about 3/4 of the way down on the left hand side which says 'fit to paper', then press 'ok' at the bottom to print and bob should be your anties uncle as they say........ wont be to scale - but then if I remember correctly I'm not sure the drawings are scalable drawings anyway.

Actually its bit easier, but depends from version of Acrobat you have. Use latest.

From top menu select File -> Print ...
Dialog pops up - in page handling area select from drop down named "Page scaling" fit to printer margins". Thats it.

Forget changing paper format - it does not influence printing oin this stage.
