Printing the Plan

I have big issues with printing the plan (2D view). The PDF printing gives a tiny plan that is completely useless.

What I do now is capture the screen, move to another area, capture the screen, move to another area, etc. and then stitch them all in Photoshop and save as PNG.

Yes, it's as bad as it sounds.

Can anyone help, please?

BTW, is there a simple way to AUTOMATICALLY add the measurements? It's a tedious job...

Other than 2 things above and the 3D view problem I posted in the other thread - that's a fantastic program!

Re: Printing the Plan

Why don't you use the scale field in the page setup dialog???

is there a simple way to AUTOMATICALLY add the measurements?
No, but double clicking on the border of walls, furniture or rooms with dimension line creation tool will help you to create them very fast.

Re: Printing the Plan

Thanks for the quick reply and the help.

The double-click is cool. Didn't know about it!

As for printing: It would be VERY helpful to be able to print/export to a single image file (an any scale I want), so I can print it in my favorite printing program.

Re: Printing the Plan

Export the plan to SVG and print it with Inkscape.
