Title: Printing drawing is not filling up 11x17 paper
Post by: notredave on June 16, 2021, 10:29:08 AM

Good morning,

I have a drawing that I can't seem to fill the 11x17 paper when printed. I've tried plotting to limits, extents, window but none of that works. There are layers frozen and not turned on but I didn't think it mattered. I am attaching original drawing and pdf of what it looks like printed. If anybody knows what the pronlem is, please let me know.

Thank you,
David

It fits as best as it can. If you want it to go to all 4 edges, make the drawing larger (stretch) in the X direction.

Use Named Pagesetups, and Layouts to plot.  Makes life simpler and printing more predictable.
