Application Paper Size
When you print multiple images, the printer driver
must provide information about the logical page area in
combination with the size of the paper being printed.
Select this to specify a logical
Physical Paper Size:
page area with the same dimensions as the paper
being printed. This is the default.
Choose this setting in combination with the Scale
Images setting to print multiple-image printouts,
where each page image is reduced, but contains the
full content of the original (so that more fit on a
sheet of paper). This is often used for printing
drafts.
Select this to specify that the
Paper Subdivision:
logical page area is the size of the paper being
printed, divided by the number of multiple images
selected. For example, if you select Legal paper size
(14" x 8.5"), 2-Up, and Paper Subdivision, the
logical page area is 8.5" x 7."
You can use this setting to print brochures. Using
the example above, you can print two pages of a 7"
x 8.5" brochure on one sheet of Legal paper. (Be sure
to choose the appropriate orientation on the Paper
property sheet to obtain the desired layout.)
Layout
Scale Images:
If you select this, the full page image
appears in the reduced area.
If you select this, the page image is
Clip Images:
cropped to fit in the reduced area, and some content
is lost.
Separator Lines:
If you select this, separator lines are
drawn between the multiple page images.
Page Image
Use the settings on this property sheet to manipulate the
appearance of the page image without changing the
document within the application. The changes you
apply are reflected in the page image at the top left of
the property sheet.
Image Rotation
Choose one of these settings to rotate the page image by
90, 180, or 270 degrees. 0° is the default.
Use Bitmap Smoothing
Bitmap smoothing evens out the transitions between
different gray levels in bitmapped images only. Select
this setting when bitmaps in your print job have a lower
resolution than the printer. The overall appearance will
be better, but it may take longer to print.
Variations
Use this setting to produce different effects on the
printed page.
Select this to reverse the gray scale
Negative Image:
for the document. Then, white prints as black, black
prints as white, dark gray prints as light gray, and
light gray prints as dark gray.
Mirror Image:
Select this to print an image that is
reflected, or flipped, on the vertical axis.
Use this option to reduce or enlarge the
Scaling:
page image of your document. Enter a percentage
value from 0-999. A value greater than 100 enlarges
the page image, a value smaller than 100 reduces it.
note:
This scaling setting may combine with scaling
options in your application or in the Multi Image
property sheet and produce unexpected results.
