Hi and welcome Patmatt41

To set your "print page" size.

For "Current" drawing (will apply to current drawing only)
1. Edit > Drawing preferences > printing > page.
2.From here -you can set the print page settings, size, orientation etc.

For the "Application default" print settings (will apply to all new
drawings)
1.Edit > Application preferences > printing >Default page settings.
2.From here you can set the Default print page settings -size,orientation etc.

In Print preview -file > print preview or use Icon or Ctrl-Shift-P

There are options to set the scale, move the paper position, orientation, auto-fit to page...etc. etc...

Hope this helps :wink:

You can use the sub -forums QCAD Professional (3.0) How do I questions or Troubleshooting and problems for similar questions.

Tanks a lot Clive for this super quick answer.

I've see the options in
"1. Edit > Drawing preferences > printing > page.
2.From here -you can set the print page settings, size, orientation etc."


but I don't found the options in Preview to
"...to set the scale, move the paper position, orientation, auto-fit to page...etc. etc... "

For "Print preview" -either
1. File > print preview.
2. Using keyboard -press "Ctrl-Shift_P".
3. Or click on "Print preview" icon in "Top" tool bar (printer icon next to SVG icon).

The options are found above in the "docked" toolbar!

To find the sub-forums just scroll down the main forum page -they are under QCAD professinal (3.0)
