Size Correction

Size Correction accounts for the difference in printable area between XES and PCL5 printers. XES printers can print to the edge of the page, while PCL5 printers can print only to within about 1/4 inch of the page edge. Further, the page origin on a PCL5 printer is 1/4 inch down and to the right from the top left corner, whereas an XES printer page origin is at the top left corner. To correct for these differences between the two printer types, the user can choose between None, Offset, Auto Offset and Shrink. The default configurations have values of Shrink or Offset.

None will print the XES document to the PCL5 printer without compensating for the differences in origin or printable area. Because of the difference in page origins, the output will start 1/4 inch down and to the right from where it would print on an XES printer. This selection ensures that no text is lost or clipped at the upper and left edges of the page, but text may be lost or clipped at the bottom and right edges. Further, because of the difference in positioning on the page, this choice is inappropriate for printing on preprinted forms. It is useful, however, for those PCL5 printers that can print to the edge of the page.

Offset corrects for the differences in page origins. If selected by the user, negative values entered under Top Offset and Left Offset (below) will shift the printed output on the page up and to the left by the amount specified. If set to -1/4 inch, the user can ensure that the effective page origin is the same as that of an XES printer. However, if the document sends text to the edges of the page, this text will be lost or clipped. This choice is appropriate for printing on preprinted forms if the XES document does not use the outside 1/4 inch of the page.

Shrink will reduce the vertical and horizontal distance between the origins of all text characters on the page to 93.75%. This is the amount necessary to fit all output on the page, even if the document prints edge-to-edge on an XES printer. This choice will ensure that no characters are lost or clipped, but it is unsuitable for printing on preprinted forms. The effective page origin is 1/4 inch down and to the right of the upper left corner of the page.

Top Offset

Top Offset specifies the amount of shift if Offset is selected (or active because of the Auto Offset algorithm) under Size Correction. Negative values move printed output up; positive values move printed output down. The value can be entered in inches, 1/300 inches or 1/60 inches, depending upon the setting of Measurement Setting for Entries under the
