Resizing options

The Resizing Options group box consists of the following controls:

Actual Size (default)

Print Document On setting

Scale to Fit check box

% of Normal Size setting

Actual Size

Actual Size is the default setting. It prints the document without changing the document size.

Print Document On

Select the Print Document On radio button to format the document for one media size and then print the document on a different media size, with or without scaling the image to fit the new media size.

The Print Document On control is disabled by either of the following conditions:

The % of Normal Size value is not 100.

The Pages per Sheet value (on the Finishing tab) is not 1.

When Print Document On is selected, the drop-down menu shows the media sizes on which you can print. The list contains all of the standard media sizes that are supported by the selected media source and any custom sizes that you have created. When Print Document On is selected, Scale to Fit is automatically selected. Clear this check box if you do not want your document reduced or enlarged to fit on the selected media size.

Scale to Fit

The Scale to Fit check box specifies whether each formatted document-page image is scaled to fit the target media size. By default, Scale to Fit is selected when Print Document On is selected. If the setting is turned off, then the document page images will not be scaled, and are instead centered at full size on the target media. If the document size is larger than the target media size, then the document image is clipped. If it is smaller, then it is centered within the target media. The following illustration shows preview images for a document formatted for Legal-size media with the Print Document On check box selected, and the target size specified as Letter.
