Hi,
I am trying to print a map and when i put the print settings to what i want it is not working.
I have a map that is 575 pixels x 700 pixels (not sure how i got this size?) and when i go to print it looks on screen very small and in top left corner of an A4 sheet. If i change the settings to "Scale to Fit" it increases the size to fit into A4 sheet and shows me exactly what i want to print. However, when i then print the map it only gives me a small piece of the original map from top left corner, which i suspect is the original 575x700 pixels on the now expanded map.
Why does the print preview show me something and then it doesn't print it as shown?
Cheers,
Smithy

Re: Printing maps only produces partial print
By the way, for now you can export your map as "pdf" then print the pdf from a pdf reader. This will let you print the map properly with the current release.
Thanks!
