Page set up & page breaks


Rhi Nicola

Question

Hello - complete beginner here with basic question;

 

I am setting up a new document in order to create a floor plan at 1:25 on A3. I have adjusted the scale and modified my drawing area manually (297 W x 420H). My at home printer is an A4 printer but I intend to print the document elsewhere on an A3 printer.

 

My question is whether the page breaks (which currently still reflect an A4 printer despite my document set up) are automatically aligned to my at home printer and can simply be deselected and ignored? I want to ensure here's no a silly error I've made in the document set up before starting.

 

Many thanks

Rhi

Welcome to the forum.

 

I think this will do what you want:

 

File > Page Setup > Printer Setup…

 

Format for Any Printer

 

Choose A3 if it's there.  Use Manage Custom Sizes… to create it if not.

 

Hit OK to get back to the Page Setup… dialog box

 

Make sure Horizontal and Vertical are both 1.

 

Tick show page boundary and show page breaks to confirm that you will get what you want.
