setting things up for easy printing later?
Submitted by on Saturday, 23 July, 2011 - 05:29
Dear all,
I would like my code to be formatted in a way where printing is easy. As is, jEdit indicates that my screen is displaying in Monospaced 12 plain font. The print options indicate that printing will be done in the same font except in 9 point font. However, when I print, the font is not 9 pt, it is still 12 pt. Am I missing something easy here?
I would like to set my font to 9 or 10 pt while editing and printing. However, when editing I would like to be able to zoom in (so 9 pt is bigger than it usually is). I have not found how to do this. When I set jEdit to 9 pt font, it simply shrinks the page and so nothing changes (I can fit no more text on a printable line). Any general advice would be appreciated. I am trying to format some code for publication, and I am not a computer scientist (perhaps obviously) and am looking for the most efficient way to do this. I'm pretty sure copying code into a Word .doc and formatting there would be a nightmare (and a duplication of work in some sense).
Thanks,Seth
