my god that connector is pure evil

@all

dang, oh well, tnx for your input guys.

hey guys 'n gals,

height of lazyness :) but i'm wondering if there's a setting to make the zoom
gadget,zoom to fullscreen directly? instead of the shift+mouseclick way.

please don't slay me if this has been obvious for long :)


using 4dot1 btw

@TetiSoft

thanks for the solution, i can now utilize the whole paper area.

i do however have problems now with the actual size of graphical outputs beeing smaller than they should be
(when scaling is off, scaling on uses the whole paper),
but i'm sure i'll find a way to adjust this in time.

edit:

okay the best way i've found is to have a canvas the same exact same size of a A4 document then paste images on that..then no resizing will occur.

thanks again.

tried with AmiGS only so far,it displays everything just like my printer does anyway...including the faulty A4 output.

Yes, you are confirming what i thought, sorry i didn't make myself better understood.

I'll dig thru google and see if i can find some files that AmiGS reports as anything besides "Letter".

edit:

ok here's one: http://www.cs.utah.edu/flux/papers/sc ... sigcomm03/posterabs-a4.ps , reported as beeing 210x297 (A4) in AmiGS,printing this to a file converted it to US Letter.

@TetiSoft

okay i've done the print to file deal and yes, basically the same.

what i'm trying to print is a dvd cover, gfx that is.

height 27,2 cm width 18,4 cm (normal mode)


i've now set Printer PS to output US Letter instead of A4, The output is perfect.

I'm just guessing but i think anything set higher than US Letter won't come thru as ment...could you verify this theory in the code?



thanks for all the pointers.


edit: removed useless babble (still some left i know)

@Swoop

commas or decimals are displayed according to locale prefs..in my case they are indeed commas.

and yes..that freeze certainly is amusing at first :D

@Swoop

i can't go beyond that value when top margin is set to greater than zero.

i did raise the paper format value 3 cm (breaking the A4 standard) at one point thinking i might get around this behavior, but i just got the same result.

edit:

if only print would show up with top edge set to 0 (or 0,5) , i mean it can't be a coincidence that if i set 2,99 for the top and then lack 3 cm at the bottom...almost like i need to align the printer *groan*.

hey guys,

i recently bought a hp 2605dn and i've hooked it up via the router and use lpr.device with it.

now, when i do some postscript printing for some reason it refuses to
utilize the whole area (A4) , 3 cm from the bottom to be exact , i've fiddled
with the printer ps prefs but nothing i do make it print in that 3 cm area.

here's my postscript prefs:

Any clues?

@jape

yes..recognize it all very well,in my case it was a faulty psu
