QCad 2.2.1.0 Professional unable to print custom sizes
Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 11:31 am
I have reported this problem 17th July to Ribbonsoft but got so far no response. I first noticed this when trying to make a PDF export for a 297 mm x 630 mm page size. The application froze and I got no PDF file. Using standard page sizes worked ok.
There was something strange also in the preview window: I had drawn the drawing using meters as unit and 1:100 scaling. However in print preview window the scaling had to be set to 10:1 to fill the page. The units for custom page size in current drawing preferences seems to be always millimeters, but the odd scaling would IMO hint that the values are not interpreted correctly.
The same problems were present also when trying to print to file using real printer driver.
I have tried QCad both in Opensuse 10.3 and Windows XP with the same results.
Anyone else having the same problem? Any ideas how to get around the problem while waiting for real fix?
