Windows GDI Print Length Limitation

The Windows operating system uses a Graphics Device Interface (GDI) which limits printing to 16,000 pixels. The paper length at 600 dots per inch is equal to 16,000 divided by 600.

What all this means is:

There is a limit of 26.66" for vector data in Windows 95. For raster images, the limit is 54.61". It should also be noted that this limitation is only because of the GDI limitations. ENCAD printers do not have this limitation. Length limitations are a function of software or RIP parameters. Any conflicts that do not use the GDI interface should be directed to the software vendors.

These limits are imposed by the Windows 95 Graphics Device Interface. The limitation of 26.66" is based upon a 16,000 pixel limit for a vector. The printer has a resolution of 600 Dots Per Inch (DPI). To find the largest size divide 16,000 by 600 to get the size in inches. (26.66"). The limitation of 54.61" is due to the size of the digital word that is sent between the application and the driver. This word is 16-bits long. The maximum positive value that can be placed in a 16-bit word is 32,767. Therefore, by dividing 32,767 by 600 we get 54.61".

Many Windows applications limit the maximum print size to “C” or “D” size due to the way that they map their internal coordinate system to memory.
