Folks
You can probably see the screenshot attached in your received email, but
I see it is not kept, and stripped when posted back to the
[email protected].
This is the Brother large format printer I own and as you can see from
within the software for the Brother (not the printer itself), lower
right, you can see the choices I have from within any app I use, whether
in Windows 7, or in my case and this screenshot, Ubuntu Raring 13.04, to
select multiple pages for a large format image, document and so forth.
This is using LO Writer 4.0.4, but as I said I can open Calc, Draw etc.
with the same choice of options. Although covered and greyed out while
my selection is open, I can also select the page order.
So although Regina used a different set/choice of words, possibly
applicable to her make and model of printer, most modern medium to high
spec printer software does have a choice somewhere in it's software
settings, to do multipage printing.
Regards
Andrew Brown

Hi John,

We have created a floor plan, using LO Draw with a scale of 1/8" = 1'.
Now we want to take it to Kinko's (Fed Ex) and have it printed for
about
$4.00 per page. Problem is they cannot print it. A few questions:
1) What is the standard file format (description and file type) for
professional drafting?
2) Does LO Draw support this format?
3) If not, is there a work around?
4) Can I print multiple parts of the drawing onto 8.5" x 11.0" paper,
then tape them together for a preliminary draft? (I know I can do the
taping part, its the printing that is an issue :) )?
You can use the option "Distribute on multiple sheets of paper" in
the second tab of the printing dialog. The printer needs no special
setting.
5) And , finally, Does the PDF format fit into this issue at all?
Kind regards
Regina
Well I just opened a large format document in Writer and checked every
printer that wasa letter/legal printer and I saw NO option like listed
above. I use Ubuntu 64-bit with 4.0.4.
So, it does not work that wayfor my system.
I think one of my Windows drivers has the ability, but it is not in my
Ubuntu system.
