I work on files that contain 18 x 24 drawings. I do printing on 8.5 x 11 where the image is reduced in size to fit that paper size. I also need to print portions of the 18 x 24 at actual size on 8.5 x 11. For actual size prints, I need to select the specific portion of the 18 x 24 to print. I've enjoyed that feature in the past but am no longer able to do so. Help! What settings need to be changed to restore that option? 

 

Also, is this an HP issue or should it be addressed to Microsoft?

I think what you are describing is the desire to print in Poster and select a "section" of the full drawing to print on your Letter size paper.

 

Install the Full Feature Software (see Section "Printer - Printer Software" later in this message)

Install Adobe Reader DC

Import / Create / Export the content of your drawing to a PDF format file

Print using Adobe Reader DC in Poster - Select the section you want to print

 

==================================

Print PDF - Size or Poster

 

Open the PDF document in Adobe Reader DC 

Click the Print icon

Open Properties

Set Shortcut to Everyday Printing or similar (Plain paper printing, single sided)

Select your Paper Size

Click OK to save change(s) and Exit the Properties menu

Main print menu

Page Sizing & Handling

If printing at 100% or smaller, and the content fits on the paper, Page Sizing & Handling = Size

Then select Actual, Fit / Shrink to fit, percentage (wording varies)

OR

If printing “larger than 100%”, or the content size requires it, Page Sizing & Handling = Poster

Poster Printing - Notes

  • If the file is smaller than the paper size and you need it larger, increase the Tile Size
  • If the file is already larger than the paper size, it will be divided into Tiled sheets needed to print the file
  • Enter an "overlap" and whether you want the "cut marks" included

When ready, click to Print

 

 

Example - Adobe Reader DC - PDF - Poster

Set up as Poster print

Select the Page(s) to Print OR Click on the Section you want to print


PDF_Document_Poster_CAD_3PDF_Document_Poster_CAD_3
