Rishie Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Hi, Even i've encountered this problem, the page size that i've defined in the page setup dialogue box is different from the actually page size the title block size is cropping with the page size (defined as the page setup) but when we export i get this extra space in the pdf away from the tile block. Anyone here can help us to fix this? Quote Link to comment
shorter Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) Create a custom page size, precisely the size you want, but for 'Any Printer' and enter 0mm in the margins. Then print to 'One Printer Page. Then make your titlesheets approx. 10m smaller all round for A3 and approx. 15mm all round for A1, or whatever suits your printer. You really don't need the grey area to tell you if it fits on a printed sheet or not. We do this because few have the same A3 printer, and it looks nicer that having the grey border! Tip: Paper Size has to be entered as short side, then long side, i.e. as a portrait sheet in the Page Setup dialog. Edited August 24, 2021 by shorter Quote Link to comment

Vectorworks, Inc Employee Nikolay Zhelyazkov Posted September 2, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted September 2, 2021 Hello @Rishie, Opening your file on windows I see that in Printer Setup you have Vectorworks Scaling set to 90%: Try setting this to 100% and let me know if this fixes the problem. Best Regards, Nikolay Zhelyazkov 1 Quote Link to comment
