The Page Setup for plots and diagrams is accessible via the print window (see Printing).
The following options are available on the Page tab or Margins tab of the Page Setup.
Orientation. The Portrait orientation works best for small charts and diagrams. If the image is wider than it is tall (which is the case for most plots), select the Landscape orientation.
Keep aspect ratio (available for plots). Select this option to maintain the proportional relationship between the width and height of the image. Clear the check box if you want to stretch the image to fill the paper.
Scaling (available for diagrams) allows you to shrink or enlarge a diagram to fit a specified number of pages. For example, to print a diagram to four pages in a rectangle, you would enter the values 2 by 2 pages. The software will automatically adjust the size of the diagram image to fit to the specified pages.
Print without interior margins is used for printing images that span multiple pages, so that the pages can be assembled into a whole picture. It removes as much margin space as possible from the interior edges of each page, where it meets the other pages.
Print empty pages prints any blank pages within the print area; otherwise, the blank pages are omitted from the printout.
Margins. By default, the margins will be printed based on the System’s default option, which is the measurement system specified in your computer’s region and language settings. You can change the unit to inches or centimeters as desired.
To add custom headers/footers for printing, click the Header/Footer tab of the Page Setup.
To insert variable information such as date, time, number of pages, etc., use the command icons in the window to insert the appropriate field codes (or use the codes shown in the table below).
