The largest divisions can be subdivided by dotted lines. It is possible to define the limits beyond which the intervals are sub-divided in 2, 5 or 10 parts.7¿CE' € €°Œ‚H€‚ÿPrinter setupêØD.G5 8€Õ€&Œ˜¤‚H€€€€€‚ÿThis button opens a dialog to change the orientation (portrait/landscape) of the diagram and the dimensions of the paper sheet. The new format is displayed on the screen preview as a proportionnal rectangle as large as possible. Because of Windows enhanced metafile format capabilities, the maximum size allowed for a diagram is 32 cm (height or width). If you print on a US legal paper (14 inches high = 35.6 cm) it will be impossible to get a diagram as high as the sheet of paper.2 E`G' €€°Œ‚H€‚ÿAccuracyþÐ.G^H. *€¡€Œ˜‚H€€€‚ÿWith some printers, the divisions in metric and imperial scales have not an exact length. It is possible to enter a correction factor (horizontal or vertical) thanks to trackbars in the accuracy dialog.:`G˜H' €&€°Œ‚H€‚ÿPrinter problems¡v^H9J+ $€í€Œ˜‚H€€‚ÿSome printer drivers cannot print correctly the diagrams of 'Graph Printer Printer', particularly when the lines are thick and tight with a full page format. In that case, the driver automatically tries to print with a reduced resolution, but the result is always bad. If you meet this problem with your printer, the only solution is to reduce the size of your diagrams.<˜HuJ' €*€°Œ‚H€‚ÿCustom graph paper…T9JúK1 0€©€Œ˜‚H€€€‚ÿThe dropdown pick-list provides a way to print any linear scale.
