Controlling your plot's appearance Page size PLOT 3 APPEARANCE Terminology Page size The Page size option applies only when using roll media, and is used to define the way in which the plotter emulates a sheet of media when printing your plot. This section explains how to make sure that the plotter prints your plot in the page size you want.

By default, the plotted page size is set to the inked area (plus the margins). In AutoCAD for DOS, however, the "User Size" is the plotting area. These are fixed for the HP DesignJet 330 and 350C. The values are 17 mm on the leading and trailing edges and 5 mm on the sides. This is the chosen page size minus the margins. For a table showing the plotting areas for standard media sizes, see page 10-7.
