SettingDescription
Scale Factor

Sets the scale per the desired measurement units. The larger the Scale value, the smaller the printed image. The scale is read as 1:2.00, meaning 2 meters of image per millimeter of paper.

Specify Print Dimensions

Scales the image per a specified width and height. Ratio is maintained.

Percentage of Paper Size

Scales the image as a percentage of paper size. For example, if 75% is specified, the image occupies 75% of the page.

Offset

Specifies the width and height of the offset, which determines where the image is placed on the print output. For example, if width is set at 20 and height at 30, the left corner of the image is placed 20 units to the left and 30 units to the top. Offset is visible in the preview.

  • Paper size - line weight appears in the printed output as if it was printed on the specified paper size.

  • Percentage - line weight is reduced according to the specified percentage.
