by the window value. The freely adjustable settings apply both to
the orientation as well as the format size and the format border:
X-Scaling Format width
Y-Scaling Format height
If you want to scale the drawing set the format to “Percent“. In
this case, the “Scale“ input fields are activated and you can
enter any values between 1.0 and 999.0.
If you choose one of the standard ISO, ANSI or ARC formats,
you can accept the dimensions or change them as you require:
First set the required format. You can now alter the format width
(“X-scaling“) and the format height (“Y-scaling“) values as you
wish. If the entered values are not corresponding with the
standard formats, the menu entry will change to “window”.
The value x in the “Maintain ratio“ window represents the side
proportions “width = x · height “. If you activate the “Maintain
ratio“ option, you can only alter the values above it for the
width, i.e. the X-scaling. The Y-scaling, or height is then
adjusted automatically, i.e. the drawing is scaled proportionally.
This can be useful e.g. if you know that the printout of a
drawing is too large for the paper size available. In this case,
activate the “Maintain ratio“ option and reduce the value x
slightly, to obtain a proportionally correct printout. The
“Maintain ratio“ option is already activated as a standard
setting.
• Scaling:
The X-Scaling input fields only become active, if you have
selected “Percent“ as the format. You can print out the drawing
in a free format of 1.0 % to 999.0 % of the original. The input
field for Y-scaling is automatically filled with the value of the X-
scaling, if you have activated the “Maintain ratio“ option. If you
then want to enter the Y-scaling value independently, you must
deactivate the “Maintain ratio“ option. In this case, you must
consider that the drawing will appear distorted.
• Media type and position
Use this menu to select which type of media the drawing is to be
printed on: Don’t care, Paper, Vellum, Film or Recycled Paper.
