When printing a drawing to A3 format on a Canon iX4000 in Qcad 3 RC2 the image is cropped when as if i am trying to print to a A4 page. Setting are correct, however.
(I see a release candidate 3, but where can i download it? Checking versions confirm that i am up-to-date)

- Please attach drawing file (DXF or DWG) if possible or send it by e-mail.
- Please check if creating a PDF with QCAD works as expected (File - PDF Export). Do NOT use the Mac OS X print dialog PDF export function for this.
- RC3 is a bug fix release for Windows only.

PDF export appears to work fine to A3 with the submitted file. The exported PDF is A3 and shows the whole drawing.

Printing to A3 cannot be tested here unfortunately.

Suggested workaround: export to PDF and print PDF with favorite PDF viewer.

Closure comment

New driver at user's computer fixed the printing problem.
