11.4.5 Overriding Automatic Page Breaks

   

NExS provide two options which allow you to override the automatic page breaks which would otherwise be enforced.

Fit To Page

 

The Fit to Page options allow you to specify whether this option is enabled, and if so, forces the printed output to fit within the specified context. (The font size is ignored to reduce the character size as necessary to comply with the selected option.) There are four choices:

Off -
Disable the Fit to Page option.
Horizontal -
Reduce the size of the selected print area to fit within the page width, eliminating horizontal overflow.
Vertical -
Reduce the size of a selected print area to fit within the page height, eliminating vertical overflow.
Both -
Reduce the size of the selected print area (width and height) to fit within the bounds of a single page.

To override the automatic page breaks:

  1. Select Page Options from the Options menu or Print Sheet dialog box. NExS displays the Page Options dialog box as shown in Figure 11.1.

  2. Click the left mouse button over the Fit to Page option button to display the options. Holding the left mouse button down move to the desired selection and release.

  3. Apply your selection by clicking OK or Apply.

Shrink/Expand

 

The Shrink/Expand option allows you to decrease or increase the size of the printed output - overriding the font size. The default is 100% which means that the page will be printed at its normal size. To reduce the size, change the percent to something less than 100%; to expand, change the percent to something more than 100 To shrink or expand the printed output:

  1. Select Page Options from the Options menu or Print Sheet dialog box. NExS displays the Page Options dialog box as shown in Figure 11.1.

  2. Enter the desired adjustment factor into the Shrink/Expand entry box.

  3. Apply your selection by clicking OK or Apply.
