Graphic Print Preview

 

When this command is invoked it opens the Print preview dialog window displaying a print preview of the drawing in the worksheet set up to print at a scale such that it will fit on the predefined page size.

In the preview window are present a number of menu functions which affect the print result without affecting the original in the worksheet. One of these invokes printing of the image to the predefined printer.

 

The commands are:
