schematic sheets B vs C size
« on: February 18, 2020, 02:10:41 pm »
Hello, drawing a schematic in C and printing in B (11*17) results in the printed object not filling the entire sheet (It could be that the graphics are not scalable).
Is there a work around and is there a preferred PDF reader to use with Altium.

I tried custom scale in the printer output dialog box (yellow), the results were the same.

thanks

B and C have complementary aspect ratios, so there has to be letterboxing or cropping.  Is that what you're referring to?

Thank goodness for the square root of 2 and ISO216.
