#1 Offset drawing when printing - change margins on title block?

I am modifying the title block and use IEC and A3. This and changing the grid system to my needs is fine.

However....
The workspace, determined by the four corners that are shown during title block construction, is printed with very small margins on the sides - this means that if you want to place a printed drawing in a folder, the holes will be in the workspace. Not so nice.

Is there a simple way to change the margins for each edge of the page?

Thanks in advance,

Pieter

Thanks for posting on the forum.

Not at the moment unfortunately, though this is something we're exploring, as you're not the first person to ask about it.

Currently, here are two different methods you can try.

  1. Check your printer settings to see if it's possible to define margins
    or
  2. First print your project/sheet to PDF, then use the tools in the Print window in Adobe Acrobat Reader (such as Custom Scale) to create margins

Please let us know if this helps.

Hello Jeff,

Thank you for the work-arounds; they will do until the proper solution arrives.

OK
