apply to layout |
|
|
i work at home. i've got a little hp printer that only prints 8 1/2 x 11 sheets. i get plans that are oversized (24 x 36 for example) and need to print it out to work on a design.
so...i draw boxes that are 8 1/2 x 11 and are copied all over the sheet. i go to print the first "box", select "apply to layout" to save the changes to printing preferences...but then there's a black rectangle on my layout and the rest of the plan is greyed out. i have to undo the command and then reset everything for each print.
any way to "turn off" this highlighted print box so that my plan image remains the same, but the setting for printing remain? thanks.

Don't save the changes, and it won't do that anymore. There are no setting
you want to save, are there, not if you want to print quite a few of these
rectangle-areas. Just chose the WINDOW selection option.

Better solution would be to create more layouts, one for each sheet, and
plot from all of them instead.
