Printing long drawings V5 R22 2

[Slaen]

Hey everyone,

Im trying to print a lengthy drawing in CATIA and when I go to print I choose the size paper I have which is C+ 18X22 then I try to scale it but if I do fit in the page the drawing is too small, If I just leave it I only get a portion of my drawing from the plotter. Is there a way to scale up the size and print the entire length? I looked at the plotter settings and there is a cut off but ill just get blank paper if I do that.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks

Enter the property page of the C size sheet. In the Format area, delete the C size text then hit the tab key. This should unlock the Width and Length of the sheet. Make your paper size large enough to encompass your drawing. Catia will only print the geometry in the sheet area.

This will create a custom sheet size.
