Print a poster to letter size
Does anyone know how to print a 18" X 24" size poster
(this is the page size) to an 8.5" X 11" output page. In essence I'd like to scale the poster size down to fit on a letter size page. Thanks in advance for your help. ppowell |

Thanks in advance for your help. ppowell This has nothing whatsoever to do with Publisher, and everthing to do with your printer driver. I use a Canon i9950 and, in the printer properties under 'Page Setup', there is a drop-down menu marked 'printing type'. There I have the option to either 'fit to page' or for 'scaled printing' - the latter will do what you wish (assuming your printer driver has such a function). If it doesn't, then I don't know what to suggest - grouping and pasting to a smaller sized page, perhaps? |

Print a poster to letter size
I agree, I do have different options with the two
different printers that I am connected to. However, these scaling options still don't give me the option to print to a page size of 8.5" x 11". When I scale the document down, it prints smaller but still tiles onto multiple pages???

"Jim Dandy to the Rescue!"
(I also use Pub 2000) Open two sessions of Publisher, one with the poster, the other with a new work space. Right click your poster and Copy Go to the second session, and Paste. The poster will be very large and all you gave to do is click on a corner and move the cursor toward the middle of the poster until you reach 8½"x11". -- Don -------- Vancouver, USA - One of the great cities in one of the 45+ countries in the Americas!
