Print...
(Macintosh, Windows)
The Print command for the Macintosh and Windows versions opens a dialog box that provides
several options for printing your construction. After specifying the options you want in Page Setup
and Print , click the Print button to send your construction to the printer.
The Placement options... (Macintosh only) lets you position your construction as it will appear on a
printed page by dragging the clear page in the screen. The drawing window (your computer
screen) is shown for a reference. Select Print labels in Italics to automatically print all labels in italic
font.
If your construction requires more than one page, select the Posterize option (Macintosh only) to
number each page. You can select the position of the pages by using the pointer to drag the center
page (outlined with bold lines) in the drawing region. You can change the number of pages by
dragging the boxes in the upper-left and lower-right corners of the print region. This option makes
it fun to create very large drawings, which can be taped together.
Printer Setup...
The Printer Setup... command for the DOS version lets you select a printer and respective print
quality, and to specify the page size (US Letter, US Legal, or A4 Letter) and orientation (portrait or
landscape). Click on the selections to see the menu options.
The Printer option lets you select one of the printers listed below. If your specific printer is not in
this list, select a printer that may be similar. (Note: The print quality setting that you select may
affect the throughput of your printer. Allow ample time for high quality printer settings.)

(DOS)
The size of the drawing window in which you build a geometric construction is one meter by one
meter. Print lets you view this entire region before printing your construction. The entire figure,
with the exception of text or measurement, is displayed.
A small window represents the portion of your construction that will be printed. The construction
cannot be manipulated at this stage, but you can position the window anywhere within the one-
square-meter limits of the construction. Drag the window to move it to a new section of your
construction. Click OK or Cancel to accept or cancel the operation. Clicking on OK sends the screen
image to your printer.
