Violet1956 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I can't get a landscape PDF page to print in full. One edge is cut off. Any ideas from the computer whizzes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulletguy Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Oh hello stranger! (lol) Am no computer 'whizz' but......"fit to printable size" should show up as an option in your printer settings. With that you can make small images larger or as in your case, large images smaller to fit whatever size paper you are printing to. Some printer settings also allow you to decide on bordered or borderless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet1956 Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 Hi BG, yes I have been absent for a while due to a house move. Have tried all you suggest to no avail. Have googled my problems. Seems my only solution might be to upgrade from a freebie adobe programme to a chargeable one and try to convert the said problematic document. I see we've lost Dave Pelmet. He said some outrageous things but there was many a time when he made me laugh out loud so I will miss him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I use Adobe and have no problems printing in landscape, are your printer setting correct for landscape printing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violet1956 Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 There's the rub Colin. I do wonder whether it is the printer settings. Wish I had a clue how to manage them. What is really strange is that I have had the same printer for 3 years or more and this problem has never manifested itself before now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barryd999 Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Try going into print preview then page setup and / or properties there is usually a fit to page option somewhere. Then keep previewing it until it's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny enough just after I replied I needed to print a couple of pages of PDF in landscape, I had to do something like Barry posted, although set to 'landscape' the preview showed it as 'portrait', clicked from 'landscape' to 'portrait' and back to 'landscape' and it sorted itself out.

Violet1956 Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 I've had a look in fruitcakes. The one benefit of joining would be that I could be far ruder to Dave than I ever was on here. So far I've resisted trying to join as it appears to be a forum without rules which puts off shrinking Violets. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has to obey and praise Admin and there is an initiation ceremony which involves goats and a wet knotted knicker. Apart from that its a lovely environment.
