Problem with resizing/scaling in printer driver

Post by Thoni »

Hello again.

In our application i need to print a scaled document.
But then i get into trouble with links inside the document.

Example:
create a Word-Document
in the document place two hyperlinks like that:

then print with following settings:

and

The result looks like:

See the problem?

Or do i miss something?
I need a way, where i can scale a print to (lets say) 85% AND the link-boxes scale as well

Hi Thoni,

Could you please specify the version of the printing driver you are using?
Open a print dialog and when you have selected our printer click properties... and then in the "about" tab there should be stated the version you have. I did a quick test and had no problems with a scaled document.

Regards,
Stefan

Hi.

Version 4.0.0000 Build 0150
and
(not sure) Build 0157 (anyway, the version from early march)

Sure that there is a border? And in the right place?

In the meantime i have a workaround.
First i print with 100% and then do a tranform page. Then the boxes are in the right place.

Can you try to turn off the option "A4/Letter conversion" into Print setting of the Word ?

By the way, looks like trouble is because manual scaling used. Will check, and if it a problem - will fix.
