Print 1:1 scale - multiple pages

[wrajr]

Howdy SW fans!

I am trying to print out a part that is 18" tall (1:1 scale) - i would like to print it on two pages and tape the pages together.

I have not been able to find a way to get SW to print the part on two pages. It just wants to print the center of the part on one page leaving the top and bottom chopped.

Any ideas with out going to a large format plotter?

Thanks, Bill

You could do it by using Crop view just cut the top off and pint the bottom half and then cut the bottom off and print the top

Perhaps make a temporary drawing. It's easier to control print scale that way. You could then print one of two ways:

1.) put partial views on two sheets
2.) put the entire part on one sheet and use the "Selection" option on the print menu. "Selection" allows you to put a frame around what you wish to print, and control the scale.

All this machinery making modern music can still be open-hearted.

It is a Windows/printer/driver issue. If you have a printer and driver that will span sheets, you could do it. Otherwise you will have to work around as the other replies suggest.
