Printing 1/4th the size
Submitted by ekaqu on Friday, 21 September, 2007 - 22:41
Hi, I have been having an issue as of late where Jedit will print out in 1/4th scale. I have gone though all the options I can see and have found nothing which would cause the scaling. No other app is doing this.

Any help would be very welcomed.
Thanks.

What's the font setting under the "printing" options?

What's the font setting under the "printing" options?

This value can be different from your normal buffer settings.

Go to "Utilities" -> "Global Options" and then to "Printing".

The font is Courier New 12 plain. If the font was smaller then the text would only show up smaller but my issue is that the whole page is shrunk 1/4th the size and put into the upper left side. Even the two top bars when you print with jedit are 1/4th the size.

Ascii pic to show the issue!
The box is where the text is printed, the whole page is placed within the box.

Hmm.. Page Setup settings?

Hmm. That's weird. Check your page setup settings: "File" -> "Page Setup". I have under the media box:
Size: Letter
Source: Automatically Select

Under Orientation:
Portrait is selected

Margins are all set to 1.0 (in).

Other than that, you might check your printers settings - through your OS, not through jEdit.

I checked my page setup settings, they are set to the same stats as you Elberry. I also checked my OS (Win xp) and my printer looked normal.

Other applications do not have this issue, it is only Jedit.
